I’m inclined to think the Saints would ideally like to leave this draft w/ Bowers

Different players and circumstances but they moved peat inside pretty quick. I was never as down on him at LG as some but after this past season I’m wondering how well he would have done at LT if allowed to develop more when he younger. Penning has played what, 7 games (I think), at LT and everyone wants to write him off completely or move him inside to LG. Seems way too soon to make either of those decisions. Just my opinion.

Personally I just want them to take the BPA at #14, which I think it is likely an OT, and not let Penning affect who they pick. If the pick is a LT then I'd move Penning to RT and if that OT is a RT then I would keep Penning at LT and sign Peat to compete with him or backup if Penning can win the job. And if we take both a LT and RT let the three of them compete an the best two start at OT and you move the other to LG.

Basically, I don't want to make decisions based on what we are going to do with Penning. They just need to draft the best players they can and if it means that Penning has to move to RT or LG then so be it.
