Saints losing College Scouting Director to the Broncos for a personnel VP role

Scout teams typically present the decision makers with options, players that hit their desired metrics (both physically and mentally).....and there is a rumor that Penning was a Loomis decision, that he hand picked him....not saying it's definitely the case but I tend to believe it.....
Ok late in 2021, PFN Chief Draft Analyst Tony Pauline reported that some scouts already had Penning rated as the top tackle in the class. https://www.profootballnetwork.com/...-trevor-penning-be-ot1-in-the-2022-nfl-draft/

So it's not like the Saints were the only team that thought Penning would pan out many other did also. But it's still early with him. You never know.
