First time I heard about this:
G/C Ross Tucker's recovery from offseason back surgery will be worth watching heading into training camp. He did not participate in the team's mandatory minicamp or the organized team activities, and it is uncertain when he'll return to the field. A healthy Tucker is important because he provides solid insurance at two positions. He's a team favorite because of his intelligence, toughness and mean streak. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/3702428 (Fox Sports/Sporting News)

I thought Tucker was a stabilizing force on the line and saw him completing blocks several times well away from the play which I am sure defenders were feeling throughout the game.

I wonder why his work is not recognized by more people?

Drafting Duke Preston looks like a pretty good move in light of this. He can play both of the positions as Tucker.
