Sen. John Blutarsky Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Leonhard's no longer on the roster. yeah, I just got that. Bryan Scott is though. He's bigger but slower and certainly as uninspiring.
drnykterstein Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 I think he'll end up at Safety (or camp fodder, if he can't cut it)
Big Hurt Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Potential special teamer or practice squad body. Not much info out there about him. His pro day workout: "ran the 40-yard dash in 4.45 seconds, the short shuttle in 4.14 seconds and the three-cone drill in 6.81 seconds. He measured a 38-inch vertical jump, a 10-foot-8 broad jump and completed 17 repetitions on the 225-pound bench press." http://www.kffl.com/player/19449/NFL These numbers are as good as any high round picks corners. Many teams are picking multiple corners. Since he is a 7th round pick, who cares?
