For comparsons Penning gave up 5 sacks, 4 hits, 54 pressure, and 13 penalties...good god i didn't realize it was that bad

You should mainly look at sacks, hits, penalties to determine how good of a year an OL had in any given year because PFF's pressures are a made up stat...
It wouldn't be useless if they only used pressures that resulted in an incompletion, an interception, or a tackle for a loss... but they don't...

It is a garbage stat!

It's not about Penning it is about how much people use/trust that ignorant pressure stat that PFF made up to spice up their OL ratings....

Most people that have played organized tackle football understand that defensive players cross the line of scrimmage... It is part of the game!
It only matters when it affects a play otherwise it doesn't matter.
PFF has taken this crossing of the line of scrimmage & made it into something that it shouldn't be...
It has caused bad feeling towards players that is somewhat unfair to them...

I don't mean to clash with you about this...

I’m sorry you have an issue w/ that stat but don’t let your issue w/ that stat cause you to assume that it’s what my perspective of Penning is based on, and thus cause you to have an issue w/ my opinion.

That’s not wise. I’m the incorrect person to direct that angst at.
 
I would REALLY like it if we signed him.

While he's no stud, he's a high IQ guy with above average athleticism and versatility. He would be GREAT depth. If he is the weakest link on your offensive line, you would have a very good offensive line. He has great footwork and is a great pulling guard. This would fit Moore's running schemes very well. Radunz block zone running schemes very well.

I may be a little concerned about his pass blocking as a guard, but ideally, he's depth and not a starter. He's not gonna cost a ton of money and he's gonna give you a lot of versatility.
