Leota is a true depth projection. The NFL sample is tiny, but the build and college edge background give him a reason to keep developing. His path is straightforward: make the coverage units, show a dependable rush plan in limited snaps and force the staff to find room for him.
Strengths: Good edge size, prior high-level college experience and a role that can be expanded if he shows special-teams value. He has the physical profile to work as a developmental rusher.
Weaknesses: Only three 2025 appearances and no established NFL impact leave him behind a deep edge rotation. He must prove he can create pressure and add functional value beyond practice depth.
