Elite FSU tight end, Mackey winner, and a reliable in-line blocker
Nick O'Leary was one of Florida State’s most complete tight ends, winning the 2014 John Mackey Award after a 33-catch, 557-yard season and finishing his Seminole career as the program’s all-time TE leader in receptions, yards, and touchdowns.[3][6] His calling card was not just production but dependability in the run game—his blocking helped power FSU’s resurgent rushing attack—while his 4.94 forty at the 2015 NFL Combine showed enough functional athleticism to matter.[2][4] If you want a tough, high-IQ tight end who can contribute as a receiver and a blocker, he fit the bill.[2][6]
