Well, I would think if they want to develop some continuity, Ryker Matthews would get a chance with the ones...

When Peat was drafted, I thought Armstead, as a former third round pick, would get moved to right tackle...

Then you factor Armstead can run, and you'd figured you could really open things up in the run, screen game...

You could really put the opposing team's strong side defense at a disadvantage with Armstead's athleticism...

Armstead would have been the best right tackle in the NFL; then again, don't mess with what's working...

I like Armstead and understand the contract but if i was the front office i would keep an eye on him. Injuries are getting too frequent and now becoming expected every year.

Agreed, it does seem he's dealt with injury in his short career a little often...

That is JP's anticipated 53 man roster however I think Houma will beat out Johnson at the FB spot. Better hands and can block.

Not really news as he was a very long shot to make the team, but it means we have an open roster spot now.
