I'm gonna try to put a positive spin on this.
Josh D(best Oline player in 2010)gets a chance to get more playing time and improve draft stock.
Vadal Alexander gets a chance to contribute right away.
Les and Coach stud have to give more attention to the Oline, allowing Krags to primarily work on playcalling/offensive gameplan
Improves chances of Chris Faulk returning for 2013 season.

During practice Wednesday

So with only 1 game played, does this qualify him for a medical redshirt?

I assume you said "frick it, I'm too lazy to read the article". Your answers are within your reach if you make the effort.

Probably won't matter since he is only a junior. Would only play one more year anyway before going to draft.

You would think so but you never know with the NCAA

Meh. The young guys are physically superior by a country mile. I would hate to lose the push inside @ LG by moving JD to guard, if that were the concept would be better putting Collins or Vadal at LT and get the learning curve cranked up this week. I don't see JD at tackle at all.

he played there in scrimmages during fall camp, and has played it a little before. so I think this may be what happens. I've always thought tackle was likely his best position anyway (pre-knee injuries anyway).

I agree that Josh D is not nearly an ideal option at Tackle - the problem with trying Alexander at LT now is that Hurst is dinged up and I expect he will need more relief until he recovers. So, triage might be Collins at LT, with Josh D at LG, OR Trai Turner (if he is more ready to play than Alexander) at LT and keep Collins at LG.
Josh D is about the only guy who, if pressed, could play any position on the line, but I would not be comfortable with him at tackle, particularly left tackle.
