ChrisXVI · 12-18-2013, 09:02 AM

I'm excited and terrified at the same time LOL. Trial by fire Terron... I have faith in you!

I don't understand you give the face of your team 100 million dollars but you have trash blocking for him.

Wasn't Chuck a second round pick?

Yep and as far as LTs go he is equal to Bushrod.

Armstead is the future though. Just not sure if he is ready. The coaching staff must have seen the light after the Rams game. So I think they smelled trouble and trying to keep the train on the rails.

I meant Brown = Bushrod

Armstead doesn't face any huge obstacles in the next two weeks. Neither the Bucs or Panthers swing huge bats on his side of the line.

No penalties and keep his head in the game and he will do fine.

I wonder will they switch the better players to his side to create a possible mismatch. What's Terrons weaknesses and strengths?

No one knows his weaknesses or strengths except our coaches, so its a gamble for Carolina.

Analysis

Strengths

Armstead is a fantastic athlete for the position. He is light on his feet in pass protection, and nimble when on the move. Agile, moves well in space, shows the quickness to get to the second level and cut off linebackers. Has been asked to pull all the way across the line and has shown effectiveness in doing so. Bends and redirects well. Extends his arms to keep pass rushers at bay. Not overwhelmed by defensive twists and stunts. Does a good job of selling play fakes, draws, and screens. Weaknesses

Needs to improve lower body strength. Can get bull rushed back. Faced sub-par competition. Needs to speed up hands, and be more consistent with his aiming point. Gets to the second level quickly, but will struggle to locate his target, gets lost in space. Will lunge at defenders with his head down in the run game. NFL Comparison

Duane Brown Bottom Line

Armstead has been a fast riser in the postseason process. He's got an intriguing athletic skill set. Despite facing sub-par competition in season, he's shown the ability to be a good pass protector, and contribute as a run blocker. He can likely stay outside, although some teams might see him as a guard. He could find himself as a Day 2 pick before all is said and done.
