Leonard Hankerson yet to cure case of drops

Rookie wide receiver Leonard Hankerson continues to show coaches mixed results -- which is why he slipped to the third round of the 2011 Draft. His biggest problem remains a penchant for dropping passes.

Hankerson had that problem at Miami (Fla.) during his college career, and he has yet to solve it.

Coaches say Hankerson sometimes turns his head upfield before catching the ball. But too often, he simply drops it. Yet he has made difficult catches in traffic, using his body well and showing strong hands.
