I seriously hope I am wrong, but this guy looks like a 1st round LT bust who will need to be moved to guard. We shall see...

The guy hasn't played a single meaningful game at his drafted position and you're labeling him a possible bust? I'm not sure what you are basing your evaluation on, but Penning only played SIX offensive snaps and one special team snap versus the 49er's. On offense he was brought in as an eligible receiver. He hasn't even played a single snap at left tackle yet.
