Tom Lemming; What he has done this year is improve his 40 time, his hands, and his quickness. He's an outstanding athlete at both the TE and DE positions, and can play either position in college. You see a player who catches the ball with his hands and does a good job of keeping his body between the defender and the ball. On defense he shows explosive moves, and uses his quick hands and long arms to disengage and zero in on the QB. He sheds blockers quickly and is excellent in pursuit. Once he gives up basketball, look out.
