WitP: David Veikune, Josh Leonard

Jason Kaneshiro profiles David Veikune.
After participating in Hawaii's pro day on April 2, Veikune's schedule of team visits kept him on the go as he criss-crossed the country to Philadelphia, Denver, Tennessee and Miami.

"At least I got some frequent-flier miles off of it," Veikune said. "It was pretty tiring, plus the time change. I tried to stay in shape. I'd always try to run and lift everywhere I went."

Veikune's name has popped up as a possible third- or fourth-round pick, and he said he's received calls from most of the teams in the league making sure they have his contact information for the weekend.

As for his preference of destination ...

"Who doesn't like to be in a warm place?" Veikune said. "But if I'm in the cold, hey, I'm going to embrace it."
Kaneshiro also talked to Josh Leonard.
"Before (pro day) I still had a good amount of teams interested," he said from his home in Sacramento. "The pro day helped solidify me hopefully as a late-round pick or a free agent."

Leonard said he's heard from about 20 teams since pro day and could play tackle in a 4-3 alignment, as he did at Hawaii, or end in a 3-4 front.
And KGMB interviewed Veikune yesterday.
