Think he might have stuck if they had kept him at Center. At Guard, the talent pool with regard to guys who can run/pass/screen block is a lot deeper, because there isn't such a premium on first step quickness and ability to set and adjust protections.

Once he got moved to left guard, he didn't seem to offer more than basic ability at that position to not be overpowered by standard level defensive lineman. And so I'm not shocked that he was displaced by Kory Lichtensteiger.
