I don't think he could beat either of those guys, and honestly Remmers is the guy he probably has to beat to even make the team.

If Long is actually 100%, he's a pro bowl level player, very smart, and very experienced.
It IS possible that he takes Remmers spot as super-sub. That's possible. If so, that's a big upgrade.
I think it's likely he takes the starting RG spot. I don't see rolling with two rookies day one, but I expect Smith to be there sooner than later.
Honestly, LDT is kind of odd man out; all the rest of the players are now in a different mold.
