OL guru Duke Manyweather explains why Colby Sorsdal is a future Lions starter

Duke Manyweather is one of the most respected minds when it comes to offensive line evaluation. He’s also one of the coaches at arguably the biggest offensive line training facility. When he talks about the offensive line, people listen—important people.

Case in point, when the tape of Detroit Lions fifth-round pick Colby Sorsdal hit Manyweather’s desk, he immediately was drawn in by the small-school prospect. He started to reach out to NFL general managers to see what they knew about him and quickly discovered he was quite possibly the best kept secret in this class.
