Trevor Penning

If he plays too high and has bad pad level at tackle I don't really see how that translates to him succeeding at guard. He's a tall dude. I just don't see that transition working out.

There are only three guards in the NFL listed over 6'6" (our boy Andrus Peat is one of them). Penning is 6'7"

Exactly.
And the story from DA, and the reporting from Underhill, is he was being benched because of his run blocking.
Not what we want from OG.

After struggling bad in week one vs the pass rush, he kinda got a little better each week as a pass blocker.

The whole thing is weird.
Maybe he's enjoying NOLA too much.
Maybe he doesn't work well with others.
Maybe he just can't pick up the nuances of the position.
