If I'm using the #1 pick on a LT that guy better never need help ever.
Again, I agree, with everything you say here, both about Long and about foot speed for an LT.

I'm just pointing out that the root (Parcells) drafted a LT who lacks elite foot speed, so it's entirely possible the branch (Pioli) will do the same.

You know how I felt about Long, and I think even less highly of Okung, but I'm preparing for the worst.
