BTSC 2011 Community Mock Draft Pick No. 50 -- San Diego Chargers Select Leonard Hankerson, WR, University of Miami

Many thanks to J Lee for agreeing to select for the San Diego Chargers in both Round 1 and Round 2. Solid pick here for a team that definitely will be interested in acquiring additional weapons for Philip Rivers. Next up: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, represented by Bringin' the Wood(ley). - Michael B. -

The San Diego Chargers select Leonard Hankerson, WR, University of Miami.

 

Hankerson has shown steady improvements during his years at the U. Hankerson benefited from working out with former Miami Dolphins WR, Mark Duper. His hard work paid off when he broke Michael Irvin's touchdown record last year.  Many project that Hankerson has the potential to develop into a legitimate number one option at the NFL level, which makes him a good fit for the Chargers as they consider the long term futures of Vincent Jackson and Malcolm Floyd in San Diego. Hankerson will give them either good backup player production at worst, or immediate contributions to the present wide receiver corps of Jackson, Floyd, Patrick Crayton, Seyi Ajirotutu, and free agent Legedu Naanee.
