Lichtensteiger was awful with two good knees. Yes, I'm biased toward Josh, but I would think he would have a chance to start immediately. Washington's offensive line is awful, and he should be a good fit in their zone blocking scheme.

Congratulations, Josh!
He will also get help from a new QB who can move and help save the line.
