I'm not sure about that. They gave Leatherwood a shot at Right Tackle this season and he couldn't beat out Wills. They might move Wills over to Left Tackle and let Womack play Right tackle

You'd think, though, that pass protection for a guard would be easier than a tackle. That's why your best pass protectors usually play tackle. With that said, I will buy him adjusting to a new position as part of the reason he might be having a tough time.

I'm also always a bit hesitant to lean too heavily on PFF grading when they have to make assumptions about responsibilities. I do think they are a good tool, but not without significant flaw.

I would take anyone on that list and hopefully we pull two of the them in the end.

Question regarding our OL finish:

Do we think we'll take the first two of the three remaining targets -- Webb, Wright, Neal? Is it a case of whichever two commit first are the two we'll take, or will we try to hold out for one over the others (such as Webb)?

I wish we could take all three, if they all wanted to come here, but I don't see how the numbers would work.

All of our current OL commits (Dalcourt, Quick, Bowles, Kight) are early enrollees who'll sign in Dec. Neal and Webb also plan to sign and enroll early, but Wright doesn't. I think Bama's chances of signing Webb and Neal in Dec are pretty good. If we get Neal, Wright might not be as inclined to join our OL class.

Ive made it a point since the vandy game last year to watch the back ups play,
Just like last year with willis this kid when finally given the shot will impress.
I don't like Womack at tackle because he just not quick enough for edge rushers and
just think he would be dominate & suited at Guard.

I would add Jordan Battle (current OSU commit) to any DB list we have.

Think it's Daxton Hill (still all over him), Jeffery Carter, Battle, Pola-Gates, Akeen Dent and Banks (probably below the others) for that last 1 or 2 DB spots.

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on Jordan Battle. Bama is working to get him on campus, but that hasn't been scheduled yet.

ETA: "Braylen Ingraham teammate S Jordan Battle will take his Official visit Nov 9-11 for the Miss State game." (link) Battle also attended Bama's season opener vs Louisville in Orlando.

Yeah... I got nothin on this one. Optics alone don't seem to make sense. Seems an unlikely pull from Bama unless y'all have another target at QB... Kirby likely smarter than me when it comes to recruiting, but this is a shrug your shoulders move at best for me.

Didn't LSU offer Tua crazy late 2 years?

They offered Tua when Coach O took over for good, I believe. Some of their fans thought they would get him until he called the QB they had committed and told him not to worry about it

Hey, you never know. I suppose it's worth covering your bases in case something falls through late. I can see teams trying to play the him against Tyson angle. I personally thing Lia is a better QB than Tyson but we will see how it plays out.
