Armstead out 4 - 6 months (shoulder)

ChrisXVI · 06-16-2017, 03:26 PM

I guess Peat will get his chance to shine at his natural position LT and Kelemete will be our LG.

Fortunately we are deeper and more versatile on the OL than we have been in years. Don't forget, when Armstead missed time last season the offense still clicked for the most part.

Only positive is it's happening about as early as it possible can. There's time to patch things up and recover some. Won't be ideal but better than it going down in week 3 or 4.

Losing Unger, Armstead and potentially Nick Fairley is substantial.

Unger will be back. There is enough depth to cover on both lines. The two areas where we have improved the most, LB and secondary, have to this point weathered the storm. That's where our overall success will be determined.

Two of the best O linemen and our second best D lineman We are snake bit!

Our Left Tackle played more games for us at LT than Armstead last year.

I've caught crap for this heresy, but I wanted to move Armstead in the offseason, Peat to LT, and add either Dan Feeney or Forrest Lamp to Kevin Zeitler...

Great tackle but stays hurt. Trade next year and let our two draft picks step up

Peat can handle it. Turns out picking the Ram instead of DE was good for us.
