Volson's PFF pass blocking:
regular season - 52.9
postseason - 54.0

Adeniji's PFF pass blocking:
regular season - 48.4
postseason - 29.8

Let's look at their total pressures allowed:
Volson reg+post = 38+5 = 43 (865 PB snaps)
Adeniji reg+post = 8+15 = 23 (259 PB snaps)

If Adeniji had the same number of PB snaps as Volson, he would be projected to have allowed 76 total pressures over 865 PB snaps.

Even if just looking at total sacks allowed, you have:
Volson - 5 sacks in 865 snaps
Adeniji - 4 sacks in 259 snaps

So yes, Adeniji was (far) worse than Volson in pass protection

If T's gave up sacks and pressures at the same rate as G's, you would have a point.  However, they don't, so this is an apples to oranges comparison. 

If you specifically want to talk pass pro, Volson gave up the 5th most sacks allowed by a G last year.  This discussion is basically about taking one of the worst G's in the league in pass pro, making him switch sides, moving him out to T where he will be isolated with elite pass rushers a far greater percentage of the time, and expecting him to somehow show an improvement.  It simply isn't realistic.
