OTAs Week 1’s Practice Notes & Highlights: Trevor Penning moving to Right Tackle

Because he is plenty fast/quick enough to play LT or RT. His RAS score and testing numbers make that clear. His issue is more technical and a lack of anchor. A lack of anchor would not bode well at OG. Maybe they do try him there if he fails at RT. But it makes sense to see if he can play RT before having to move him to OG.

He might have had a high RAS score, but that didn't equate to production on the field. So what do you think his problem was last year? He didn't show the athleticism to play LT. The DE's were either bull rushing him or running around him. He was so flat footed. Might as well had put nobody at LT last year when Penning was in the game. At least that way you know as a QB you had to get rid of the ball quick.

If he has the same issues at RT, you can't wait until the 4th or 5th game of the season to make a switch. Season would be over by then.

My neighbors' daughter aced her driving quiz. 100%. Couldn't get out of a parking lot because she was petrified of actually driving. Test score didn't equate to production. She UBER's well though.
