Alex Leatherwood ? Guard

[Longboysfan]

Cut the other day - Couch scouts worth a look?

 

[Rayman70]

At guard, yes. Might be an upgrade over McGovern. He stinks at tackle however.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Didn't another team already pick him up?

know what, I think your right.

 

[Carson]

He was picked up by the Bears on waivers

 

[America's Cowboy]

Yes, I just double checked. It was the Chicago Bears.

He was terrible at OG too

Hey, LBF, your avatar picture looks like a nice place to go do some fishing.

See, I didn't know that. I think he may have been signed by a team. Good luck to them. Gruden crapped the bed with that draft pick.

Leatherwood was claimed by Chicago after being released by the Raiders. Word is that the Bears have been practicing Leatherwood at RT and looking to get him some experience at OG as well. However, he is not being forecast as a starter right now as the Bears are attempting to coach him up and develop him better than what Leatherwood showed with his time with the Raiders. All in all not a bad move by Chicago given that this is Leatherwood's remaining rookie contract:

2022: $1.3M cap hit $5.9M dead money
2023: $1.9M cap hit $4.5M dead money
2024: $2.6M cap hit $0 dead money
2025: 5th year rookie option

Leatherwood had 1,104 snaps his rookie year of 2021 (all at the RG position after being an OT in college) where he gave up 8 sacks, 17 QB hits, 42 QB hurries, and had 16 penalties. His 67 total pressures allowed were the most by an OL in the NFL last season. His last season at Alabama, while playing OT, Leatherwood gave up 3 sacks and 8 total pressures. "Leatherwood’s 2022 preseason wasn’t any better than his 2021 regular season. He allowed two sacks, two quarterback hits, and eight quarterback hurries on 89 pass-blocking snaps. Those 12 pressures led all offensive linemen this preseason."

While Dallas could not have claimed him given their late waiver spot, had he actually made it to the Dallas spot he would have been a decent reclamation project for an affordable price.

Yes, I just double checked. It was the Chicago Bears.

TY. I recall that now.

 

[Risen Star]

I'll let the Bears know.

 

[America's Cowboy]

TY. I recall that now.

You're very welcome, brother.

Yeah, but no one likes a bragger.

While it may have been a nice idea in Dallas, 2 sign him as a project, we got enough projects and not enough viable starters. I am glad we passed. Glad we are now focused on proven quality like Peters. He is plug and play in a pinch.

Yes. Childhood under the bridge fishing for perch, bass, sunnies.

 

[Longboysfan]

Thank you for the replies.
I would think the Cowboys are having enough problems getting LT into place to bring another into the mix.

In the past, I worked with a guy who went there on vacation, or for holidays. He was pleased with that area for fishing and camping.
