Saints may move Andrus Peat to left guard

Andrus Peat made a few starts at left guard during his rookie season and he could be moving back there in his second NFL season as well.

Peat, who was drafted in the first round after playing left tackle at Stanford, has been starting at right guard this summer, but coach Sean Payton isn’t happy with the way the offensive line has been playing in the preseason. That includes Peat, which left Payton to suggest that flipping sides might be part of the solution.

“He hasn’t played very well over on that right side, so we’ve got to keep looking and pay close attention to it,” Payton said, via the New Orleans Times-Picayune. “I was hoping that we were able to put him in one spot. I know what he can do well, and we’ve got to find a way to be at a high enough level inside. And I think we can get that done. … Peat’s played a lot of snaps a year ago. I expect him to be better. Now, it might be more over on the left side. We’ve moved him around enough, and we’ve got to settle in on where we feel like this player’s going to play, whether it’s the right or the left side.”

Tim Lelito and Senio Kelemete have been competing for the left guard job and the disappointing overall results could have the Saints sifting through players cut elsewhere in hopes of finding the right mix up front this year.

You'd get a tryout at least buddy, Sean Payton loves often injured players that he believes will finally be healthy all season.
