Armstead out 4 - 6 months (shoulder)

Another job for "The Kid"

Honestly, this doesn't hurt us at LT because Peat will be fine playing there. It hurts us on the interior because we're going to go through training camp, pre-season and potentially the start of the season with Kelemete and LeRibeus as our starting LG and C respectively. That's pretty weak. When Unger does come back Kelemete will have to totally adjust to a different guy next to him.

According to Josh Alper on PFT..the window is already shutting on our season. Haters gonna hate.

"Peterson can only do so much, though, and the torn labrum suffered by left tackle Terron Armstead has been added to the list of things that could help slam the window shut in New Orleans this season."

We take a few more key injuries and the door might shut... Unger will be back before the season starts, and the O-line will be fine without Terron (he didn't play last year). We have 3 months before the season starts, can only lose so many guys..

This is tiring, every offseason it's the same injury crap.

Doesn't Ramcyzk have an lingering injury also?

I just know this is a blessing in disguise per guido...makes sense. Losing starters now equals a good thing.

Doesn't matter about his injuries. If he goes down we are getting better

Peat - Turner - Kelemete - Warford - Strief. Let Ramczyk be the swing guy at tackle.

jeanpierre · 06-17-2017, 06:43 AM

Losing Armstead is not as big a deal as losing Unger; last season Peat played his natural position and the offense was still among the elite...

In fact, Peat would've graded better had he been able to practice all week at Left Tackle and not have dealt with the soap opera...

Now that Armstead is not an option, Saints can finally place former first rounder Peat in his natural position and Kelemete at Left Guard...

This'll be a good thing especially if this unit can play at their positions throughout training camp only missing Unger...

Only concerns now are that Josh LeRibeus can captain and call the blocking schemes while Unger recovers from a delayed surgery...

Just wished Loomis would've closed the deal with Kevin Zeitler as I'm leary of Mr. Mass & Ass 2017 and we'd drafted Indiana's Dan Feeney...

Mass and what? Is that the coach's motto for the team?

See, I can't move my family of 4 to a new house without a Saints player incurring a long-term injury. This team and I are spiritually linked.
