Injuries: Terron Armstead expected to miss 3-4 weeks
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Wednesday that left tackle Terron Armstead will be out for roughly 3-4 weeks, per a source.
Armstead injured his pectoral muscle in last week's blowout win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Jermon Bushrod replaced Armstead in the lineup. Armstead, a raw third-round pick from Arkansas-Pine Bluff in 2013, has worked his way into becoming one of the best blindside blockers in the entire league. Armstead consistently keeps Drew Brees' backside clean and road grades for a dominant Saints run game. Pro Football Focus rates Armstead their top offensive tackle through 10 weeks. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...-miss-34-weeks I'm telling myself it could be worse, and we have a capable backup, but I am disappointed to say the least. |
C'mon Man...

Re: Terron Has A Peck
Willie Roaf was solid during his career. It's probably time to draft a possible replacement. | |

Re: Injuries: Terron Armstead expected to miss 3-4 weeks
If you were to take Armstead's Annual Salary and Divide it by Complete Games Played, he'd be the most expensive Left Tackle in the league...
We need to draft a right tackle and move Ramczyk to LT... |

Hate to see this happen, but, we could do much worse than having Bushrod at that position.

Re: Injuries: Terron Armstead expected to miss 3-4 weeks
The Saints, like nearly every team in the league, have had their share of O-line injuries. It's a testament to the O-line coaches that they're able to move people around or switch blocking assignments to keep Drew safe. They'll work their magic for four weeks and we'll be good.

Well Bushrod, we needed you once so we could make a Super Bowl run... Time to do it again.
