Former Stanford Cardinal tight end Coby Fleener was selected in the second round of the 2012 NFL draft by the Indianapolis Colts. Fleener was chosen with the No. 34 overall selection in this year's draft. Fleener is the 33rd-rated prospect in the draft and the second-ranked tight end, according to Mocking The Draft's rankings
Here's what Mocking the Draft had to say about Fleener prior to the draft:
Final word: Throughout the offsesaon process, Fleener has become everyone's favorite tight end. He's got impressive size, great straight-line speed. His strengths are evident. But Fleener is more of a receiving tight end than anything else. He's a little behind as a blocker and not overly elusive after the catch. Fleener is probably be the first tight end drafted, but he'll need to be put in the right situation to be fully utilized.
The Colts selected Stanford Quarterback Andrew Luck with the No. 1 pick in the draft.
