Colt > Prosinski. Better tackler, faster, harder hitter.. plus he's from Butte, America. :) It's in the water.

Koy Bierman- Hardin- Atlanta Falcons
Dan Carpenter- Helena?- Miami Dolphins
Lex Hilliard- Kalispell- Miami Dolphins
Tuff Harris- Colstrip- Tenn Titans
Colt Anderson- Butte America- Minn Vikings
Dwan Edwards- Columbus- Oregon State- Ravens
Very Impressive for the state of Montana... So i think so

The metal and uranium probably isn't good for you to drink, but that's why Butte people are so weird sometimes.. but after sampling some pasties and Pork Chop John's this last weekend at the tailgates, I can say those are two things Butte definitely got right.. hopefully not dipped in the Berkeley Pit prior to deep frying.. :)

Tashaun's an interesting choice.. the bend but don't break pass D isn't helping them much though.

With DCs offense that's currently in place it wouldn't surprise me to see a WR or two end up as NFL prospects down the road.. maybe not this year or next, but at some point maybe we'll stumble on our own Jeremy Maclin.

If Leonard keeps grabbing passes all over, I wouldn't be all too surprised if he got a chance. Sure he doesn't have elite speed, but he holds on to the ball, which is very valuable. Just remember Malcom Floyd, he got a chance with Chargers because of his size and his hands... he wasn't the best receiver Wyoming had, but there were things that made him stand out. A receiver that catches everything that is thrown his way regardless of getting hit will probably have a chance, especially when he has good size like Leonard does as well.

So yeah, I think Leonard has a chance, especially since he has another season ahead to grab passes. I think what really makes him stand out is that his 42 receptions looks like a LOT compared to #2 Burkhalter's 16 receptions. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't even be all that surprised if Chargers spent a late pick on him, or signed him to try-outs. They've looked a lot at MWC players as of late. Two large Pokes receivers on my favorite NFL team? I could dig that.

I think he might get a chance the way Mike Juergens did... does anybody know if he stuck on a PS or anything like that, by the way?

He's 6-3, 233 - good NFL size - and he must have some pretty good speed/hands with the interceptions he's had so far - what? 3 so far?

David Leonard = Joe Jurevicius. Think about it, not a very big target, no break away speed, but he catches everything. Jurevicius is a journeyman, but he has proven season after season that he is reliable.
