As a rookie, it is one thing to get burned by starting edge rushers and a completely different thing to be burned by guys who will likely not make an NFL roster. Like I said, I hope I am wrong about him, but generally guys who play guard do not need to be taken in the 1st round and can be had with day 3 draft picks.

Some of the best tackles in the game really didn't become efficient immediately out of the gate. Penning hasn't even been released from the gate, yet.

Re: Saints Rookie Trevor Penning Could Return Sooner Than Expected
Saw him briefly in the San Fran game.
A simple analysis is that Trevor performed like a rusty rookie in his first game. It happens (Armstead initially struggled). TP will improve with reps and live game action. |

Re: Saints Rookie Trevor Penning Could Return Sooner Than Expected
Penning will likely have a slow start to becoming a seasoned veteran with the more playing time he gets each week. As aggressive as he is I fully expect quite a few penalties in the beginning before he gets a grip on things. That's why I want to see him get playing time this year when it doesn't matter anymore compared to next year when we're starting fresh and have the chance of winning the Lombardi.

Re: Saints Rookie Trevor Penning Could Return Sooner Than Expected
FYI ..
Trevor Penning has lisfranc injury. Upcoming surgery. This is why I'm never in a "rush" to get players back after a toe/foot injury. Per Nick Underhill. |

Either that or it's the Terrible training staff and medical doctors. I'm leaning toward the training staff and lack of medical doctors with common sense. We keep rushing these players back out there and stunting their development.

Re: Saints Rookie Trevor Penning Could Return Sooner Than Expected
Training staffs and team doctors have no impact on foot and toe injuries. That has more to do with playing surface and footwear. We notice those injuries to our players, but they are becoming more and more common all across the league.

Re: Saints Rookie Trevor Penning Could Return Sooner Than Expected
So turf issues and/or shoe issues. Can the Saints get their money back from either of those manufacturers ?
