Terron Armstead will likely be the Saints left tackle this season

Rugby Saint II · 07-22-2013, 02:10 PM

I want the coaches to Break down Smiths play and see if he's coachable. He could surprise some folks. There is a lot to be said for a change of scenery. Personally, I would like to have an experienced healthy player that doesn't keep Payton up at night playing at LT. That could be Brown(cross fingers) or Smith.
I agree that Armstead is raw and could use a little seasoning before throwing him into the fire. But then again this coaching staff is not afraid of trial by fire.

I'm really big on Smith too. I thought I was the only one. If they want to start Armstead I say try him at RT. We all know how I feel about Strief....

Im comforatable with Brown starting. We know Brown CAN start. I think he will last 5 or 6 games and then hopefully Armstead will have learned enough to be an actual improvement.

A chip block here and there from our TE's and RB's will make whoever plays on the edge look better. Just expect slower route development....and more pics...

Truth is, its just pure speculation at the moment, we will have a better idea on how he will look when preseason comes around, if he will start or not will depend on what he can do when it matters - gameday!

Um...that wasn't even an article. I could write something like that!

Martez Wilson will start at OLB because he's really good.

Lot of that going around. Wonder if they're making more than we are...

I'd feel better if Kromer were still around.

Here's why Payton doesn't like Charles Brown - he's in the training room waaaaaay too much; and that affects the chemistry, and yes, rhythm of an offensive line...

And as good as Brees has been, it all starts up front with the great offensive line play we've enjoyed since Payton took over...

Armstead will be the starting left tackle unless he can't read the playbook...

Look forward to seeing Armstead run downfield plowing the lanes for PT on Screens and on Ingram for Stretch Plays; maybe see a decapitation when Sproiles is 12 yards downfield and reverses field for additional gain...
