Upgrade Guard and trade Cesar Ruiz

Penning is like when you used to play old school D&D, all strength and you just roll with a herp a derp brute that only understands club to the face.
Ah, yes. You tickle the timbers of this seemingly middle-aged fan who remembers the famous NFL Films shot of Dick Butkus sitting there on the bench with his bloody hands clenched, waiting for another chance to tackle another opposing ball-carrier :giggle: Penning is a bit like Peter Boyle's character in Young Frankenstein, in need of that social grace-teachin' that will keep him in line with modern-day society.

Dark humor and nostalgia aside, we do need some stud guards on this team. Evans and Nicks were indeed the steady presences that allowed Brees to step up in the pocket so often and deliver downfield strikes. Our guards now are trash by comparison.
