Packers get Alabama OL Alex Leatherwood in NFL Wire mock draft

The Green Bay Packers got help for the offensive line in a first-round mock draft from all 32 managing editors in the NFL Wire network.

Picking at No. 29 overall, Packers Wire selected Alabama offensive lineman Alex Leatherwood.

The blurb explaining the pick: “Second-tier receivers and cornerbacks were still available, but the Packers go with Leatherwood to ensure the offensive line remains a high-level unit in 2021 and beyond. A left tackle at Alabama, Leatherwood could slot in at right guard or right tackle as a rookie and help the Packers replace All-Pro center Corey Linsley among the starting five.
