It's his job to lose going into camp based on draft status, yes.
It happens all the time. And it should.
Like I said, he needs those reps with the 1st team if you believe he is to man that spot. Continuity is HUGE on the o-line, and the sooner you set it the way you intend it to be the better.
If he ****s ups, which very well could happen, then he loses the job, but you have to believe that the guy you picked with the 1st overall pick is the player you thought he was, and there really is no reason to **** around with it.
Put him where he goes, and get him ready for the season.
Otherwise you basically admit to missing on the pick. It's year two.
