A tremendous worker who’s produced as a blocker, ball carrier and pass catcher, Leonard offers terrific upside in a number of capacities. Has the physical skills and mental make-up to be productive as a rookie.


Biography:

Four-year starter awarded All-Conference honors every season since his sophomore campaign. Rushing totals were 93/423/5 last season, when he also led the team in receiving with 38/294. Posted a career-high 740 yards rushing as a junior and 61 receptions as a sophomore.

Pos:

Tough, determined prospect with a complete game. Displays outstanding vision, does a terrific job sealing holes open in the middle of the field and controls opponents as a lead blocker. Has the speed to turn the corner, creates room for ball carriers and looks to hit as many opponents as possible during blocking assignments. Breaks tackles carrying the ball, picking up yardage off initial contact. Solid receiver out of the backfield who finds the open space in the defense and catches the ball away from his frame.

Neg:

Has watched his weight fluctuate and lacks the size to be a true fullback. Does not run to daylight in the open field.
