PFF's grade of all 2015 1st Rd rookies

quote:

13. Andrus Peat, OT, New Orleans Saints

2014 PFF College grade: +27.8 (fourth-highest OT in class)

2015 PFF NFL grade: -5.0 overall, +2.2 at offensive tackle (29th-highest OT in NFL)

While he graded negatively overall, it’s worth pointing out that Peat actually graded positively in 197 snaps at offensive tackle, with his negative grades coming in his starts as a guard. Given that he is likely to spend most of his career at tackle, that’s a good sign.



Based on this, I don't think Peat shouldn't be anywhere but RT. Granted he could improve at G, but it does seem like a bad idea.


I don't think the Tunsil pick is as easy of a decision as it sounds. I believe we would have to work for a trade down in this scenario.

Peat made a mid season change from tackle to guard as a rookie. An entire offseason of practice at guard could make a big difference.

If they have Tunsil at the top of their board, I don't see them overthinking the pick. Grab him, thank your lucky stars and work out the details after.

Now this is probably a pointless discussion because if Tunsil starts sliding, teams will be making moves to get him. I don't think he will last till 12..
