Las Vegas Raiders rookie offensive tackle Alex Leatherwood was working at right guard in practice on Thursday, with Brandon Parker at right tackle. Leatherwood, a surprise first-round pick, struggled in his first four games at right tackle by allowing four sacks and 18 pressures. The Raiders will be hoping for better results with the move after Leatherwood earned All-SEC honors in 15 starts at right guard at Alabama. Leatherwood has been much better in run-blocking, but he continues to be a work in progress and should continue have his growing pains on the offensive line. The rookie won't be guaranteed to start at right guard in Week 4 against the Chicago Bears. The Raiders continue to shift around their line after trading away three veteran linemen in the offseason.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
