Yesterday I ran into Zach Strief at Port Orleans and after a couple of pictures and talking about his new gig I asked him about his take on Rick Leonard. He said that Leonard was loaded with talent and a physical presence and just needs some work. He stressed that it has only been two years since he moved to the new position. He added that he talked with Leonard on Thursday and told him that making the practice squad was a good thing and would give him the opportunity to develop without the pressure of the regular roster.

I then asked him what was the front office take on Leonard. That embarrassed my wife, but you have to ask the tough questions. Lol. He said they are still high upon his potential and things are going “according to plan”.

Yeah. I’m a bit over 5’11” and my wife is 5’9” and we look like Hobbits next to him. LOL

Damn... and we all thought you looked like a gay priest.

Not all of you. I know several members off the forum itself.

The way the O-Line is starting out, ONE MORE YEAR should have been your chant. I do believe Leonard makes the squad as a backup next year. If Armstead has another injury plagued campaign, it could be Ram at LT and Leonard at RT next season. The fish and chips are great at Port Orleans.

First very cool photo. I think, from everything I have read, that Leonard has exactly the type of attitude SP is looking for and would be nothing but beneficial here. Nothing Zach said at all demonstrated RL deserving the wasted 4rth round pick when he could have been had later if not as an undrafted signing. Nothing he showed in preseason looks any better than what LT offered in his time here.

Of course I hope I'm wrong and he is a solid starter for us in the future. But so far, I'm not seeing it. And anyone on Zach's position with the team and his new career undertaking is going to allow him to offer a completely honest, unfiltered, response.

You do have some balls asking those tough questions. Cool photo and thanks for posting the information

Your team stinks
