If RG is the best position then good deal. I'm good knowing the Saints may have an elite RG for the next 10 years. To me he didn't look quick enough for the LT or RT positions, maybe it was conditioning or maybe it was just being a rookie.

There is a good possibility Andrus plays guard again this year, however his future will be at RT.

That could even take place this year. Those that know far more than I do say that Peat does not have the body type to play guard, that he is too tall and lacking the low leverage or such. We had enough players playing out of position on defense last season and we all know how that turned out.

Quickness or quick feet are often thrown around as something that is really important for a tackle, and sure it helps, but its not everything you need. The most important part for a tackle, or any o-line player for that matter, is to understand the plays and their nuances. Angles, running lanes, where the ball will be, what the defender will see. By knowing that a good o-line player can put himself in a position to make great plays against somebody that is considered a much better athlete than himself.

Peat is a smart dude and it looks like he is working his tail off. I'd be really happy to see him either at RG or RT this year, it will mean he beat out some other guy to get the job and then we got the best guy on the field.

W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.
