Cardinals 2.07 TE Leonard Pope, Arizona

I love this guy - have him slated as my #2 TE overall. The Mutt's organization is excited to be able to move up and grab him (though maybe not necessary, a 2007 3rd is worth the guarantee).

6'8" 260 lbs, runs a 4.6 40, and has what are described as "very, very good hands". Pope is going to a team quickly becoming one of the best offenses in the league. He is likely to have very little competition for the job in AZ.

I particularly like this scouting quote:

Quote:
Has a career average of 18.1 yards per catch...A rare physical specimen who is a terror to match up against and can be a major force in the passing game...Just the type of dynamic weapon the pros are looking for in the position these days.
Denny Green sums it up best:

Quote:
“He is a big tall guy that can go get the ball down the middle of the field,” said Cardinals Head Coach Dennis Green. “He has excellent speed and he is going to get a lot bigger and he is already 6-7 ½ . We had him rated very highly and thought a lot of him and he just sat there and sat there.”

Solid 2nd round pick. Has the potential to be a good fantasy player for years to come... as long as Warner/Leinart can spread the footballs around enough! Then again, at 6' 7 1/2"... the words RED ZONE come to mind!
