Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’ll struggle to get a push at the points of attack against NFL defensive linemen.
- Showing some nastiness to his game, Leslie will sustain blocks through the whistle, thriving when he’s in the phone booth.
- Effective grappling in the phone booth, with the upper-body strength and strong hands to outbattle defenders. Leslie also shows a good understanding of angles when moving out to the second level
- When his hand placement is right, he has the strong grip that allows him to manhandle opponents. Leslie plays with a mean streak and keeps the nastiness going through the whistle.
- A smooth athlete with terrific mobility and footwork, staying light on his feet. Has the lateral range, natural shuffle movements, and lower body quickness to mirror speed rushers.
- Does a nice job on the second level, moving upfield quickly and showing the flexibility and balance to land blocks in space.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Heavy-footed with an inconsistent kick slide. He’s going to have an awful time with speed rushers if asked to block on an island; he’s likely going to need help on the edge regardless.
- He’s shaky as a pass protector, which is troublesome for the next level. Leslie often plays too high with an inconsistent kick slide.
- While Leslie probably fits best as a right tackle, he has an outside chance at surviving on the left side for a team with a power-running attack.
