Prospect No. 10: OT Trevor Penning
College: Northern Iowa
Height: 6'6"
Weight: 330
Draft range: Top 10-15
Analysis: Penning is one of my favorite tackles in the draft largely because he is severely underrated. Since many don't know of him, he regarded mainly as a back half of the first round pick. As we get deeper into the draft process, I think we'll see teams have him in the top 10 or 15 of their respective draft boards. This dude racks up pancakes left and right and is dominant in pass protection as well. Very rock solid tackle that has the look of a day one starter. I don't see Carolina taking him at six, so this is more of an option if they were to trade down into the middle of the first round.
Analysis from NFL Draft Bible on Sports Illustrated:
Trevor Penning is an extremely powerful, experienced offensive tackle for Northern Iowa. He was put on the map last year, playing alongside former third-round pick Spencer Brown. He is known for his size, length and raw power as a blocker. He shows unreal flexibility for a guy of his stature. In pass protection, he possesses the required first step and length to deal with pass rushers around the edge. He must work on playing with a more consistent play-to-play platform to improve balance and anchor ability. As a run blocker, he has a never-ending motor that can drive defenders up and out of his gap assignment.
