Is he 'On Break'? Perhaps he is trying to pathfind to find something to eat/drink and can't? Make him military and see if you can move him around, then deactivate him. It might 'wake him up'.

If you have other dwarves with wood hauling on they may have already grabbed the job even though they are currently doing something else. The other possibility is that the log has been tasked for use, by a workshop or for construction.
