Leonard Hankerson is a man who can do big things in 2015 for the Atlanta Falcons. At just 26 years of age, Hankerson has the size and speed to be a number two wide receiver for the Falcons and will likely take over for Roddy White when his time is done. Hankerson has impressed everyone in training camp and had a very nice catch on a third down and long for the Falcons in their win over the Tennessee Titans.
Hankerson never had an opportunity with the Washington Redskins to show off what he can do. Now he has a great quarterback and a tremendous group of receivers around him that will make him look very good for the Falcons. Hankerson’s ceiling is through the roof. I’m not sure he has one at the moment and just very might be in a Falcons uniform for several years after 2015.
