As the self-proclaimed biggest advocate for drafting Darrisaw there is no way he starts the season at this point. I'm worried that he will be up to speed by mid-season. I am very bummed about Darrisaw and his injury. He started as a freshmen and played last season so he has a ton of experience and not many missed games in college. This core injury was known pre-draft but was medically cleared by numerous consulting physicians. The fact that it lingered and needed a post surgery clean up is a big surprise and bummer.
When/if he gets back to 100% I think he might be the best LT of the draft - he has the prototypical arm length that Sewell and Slater do not.
Without Darrisaw and Davis (who I thought would be a legit starter threat this year) showing much I am obviously still very concerned about our subpar OL. Hopefully Udoh solidifies the other Guard position but our interior (as a whole) was a huge weakness for this team and maybe the weakest. That's was with a very good year from Reiff at LT so we now have that hole to fill as well.
