Cut the other day - Couch scouts worth a look?

Hmmm… they walked away from him and took the cap hit on his guaranteed contract and didn’t think to consider converting him to gaurd???

Pro Football Focus graded Leatherwood as the second-worst starting guard in the NFL last year, and Vic Tafur of The Athletic reported Aug. 1 that Leatherwood had worked with the Raiders third team. Though he began last season as the starting right tackle, it was clearly not a long-term fit.

Didn't we just already upgrade LG with Peters?

Claimed by the Bears.

I reviewed some of his Raiders game footage.

- I don't think his issues would be resolved just by moving to OG.
- His technique is a mess.
- He looks good on one snap then appears to pose focus on the next one.
- If he succeeds, it will be due to new coaching more than the position move.

Now all I can think of is the Tallahatchie bridge.

Any advice on killing an ear worm?

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

Worth a cheap looksie at Guard....have to see if he WANTS to play. I think he's a typical guy who looks the part physically but lacks motivation from what I've seen and read

i like our guards this year over last year.

Bullflop with the knowledge!!!!

He was released by the Raiders. Claimed by the Bears...

 

[blueblood70]

Id rather not have him even if he was available and cheap. We have to keep Ball and Wally in the mix and furthering their progress...
