Leon doesn't know much about Derek, but thinks he's a cool guy who possesses the kind of wisdom that only comes with age. They have a very similar temperament, in that they're both laid back but always look out for friends and family, which Leon can identify with. Leon notices the way Derek interacts with everyone else, where he [Derek] has carved out a role as "sort of team uncle", so bonus points for that.
While, at first, Leon was hesitant to ask Derek for help in big fights because he didn't know him well enough to put him in harms way, but now, after the LA and AU!Raccoon things, Leon feels confident enough to ask Derek for help should he need it.
It doesn't hurt that Leon likes JBJ's music, though he'd never bring that up around Derek.
Derek would be honored to know Leon thinks that highly of him.
He'd also grin and tell Leon that he likes JBJ's music too, and even plays it himself every so often--it's just when people mob him thinking he's JBJ that it bugs him.
