NFL teams are scrambling all over their feet trying to get their hands on Leodis McKelvin, the 5 foot 11, 190-pound cornerback. He is considered to be easily one of the best talents in the ongoing NHL draft, and renowned teams like New England, Baltimore, Dallas, the New York Jets and Tennessee.

The 22 year old cornerback from Troy University is a strapping young man with superior athletic skills. He is blessed with supple muscles, quick movements, and the great ability to confuse opponents with his quick change of direction. This was what attracted scouts from major teams, and they are praising the way he played against teams from better known schools such as Florida, Arkansas, Georgia and Oklahoma State. His fortes are returning punts and kicks and to date has managed to chalk up a career total of 211. Most interestingly, both DeMarcus Ware from Dallas and Osi Umenyiora from the Giants were originally students from Troy University. McKelvin follow in their footsteps in the near future?
