I'm pretty sure if a team drafts a tackle in the first round, even a good team, they expect him to play early on.  Of course, DeCastro didn't, but that was because he blew out his ACL in the pre-season...

He had a torn medial collateral ligament and dislocated knee cap, if you're scoring at home.  He actually ended up playing in four games that, his rookie season.

Also, if you are scoring at home, DeCastro is a Guard, not a Tackle, though perhaps Chimp meant to write "... if a team drafts an offensive lineman in the first round..."
