SUMMARY
Tight End Rank: #66   
Overall: #386

The emergence of rookie Tony Moeaki gave Pope a lot less playing time in Kansas City last season. His reception total went from 20 in 2009 to 10 last season. He hasn't exactly taken off since entering the league, failing to top 250 yards in any of his five seasons. Pope hasn't lived up to his potential. He is a huge target at 6-8, but also runs pretty well and has decent hands. He does a pretty good job of using his huge size to shield defenders and make plays. Pope is an adequate blocker at best and lacks consistency. He'll continue to play a reserve role, getting little work in the passing game.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Pope isn't going to suddenly have a breakout season. He'll be lucky to get 20 receptions, making him a guy to avoid for fantasy teams.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Leonard Pope saved a six-year-old boy from drowning in a swimming pool last weekend. 'My heart dropped. It could have been any child. I just knew I had to do something,' Pope said. 'I wasn't waiting on anyone else ... to try to pull him out. I just felt because I have kids of my own I would want someone to do that for my kids, also.'
Fantasy Impact: Pope seems to be keeping busy during the lockout. Good for him.
