Quote:Hey KY what's your opinion on Armstead? I would look at him more but you know my predicament right now... I trust your takes, have you looked at him much?
Yeah I have watched/posted on here about his 3 games on DB last week after I saw he was #8 on Kiper's last mock and compared on twitter to the closest thing this draft has to Ansah. 

 

I don't agree so much with the Ansah comps because he doesn't have that speed, but he is extremely long and strong. I would compare him to someone like Oakman, Coples, or Brockers before the Rams had him put on all that weight. I like him and see how some people are enamored with his traits cause they are loud, but I didn't see it translate to a whole lot of production. 

 

Overall, I tentatively rank him in the tier behind Gregory and Fowler but I also wouldn't argue with anyone who did have him with them. He is obviously a completely different player, but I would rather have him than Ray and probably slightly behind Beasley. 

 

 

 

Oh yeah, I also saw McShay gushing about Armstead on twitter this morning (I especially noticed his point about being late off the snap randomly sometimes when I was watching):

<p style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">Ore DE A Armstrong's skill set (length, power from ground up, and violent hands) translates better to NFL than other "edge" guys in 2015...

Todd McShay ‏@McShay13  3h3 hours ago
I know A. Armstead is self motivated, but need to dig more on fire for game + FB character. 6-8 snaps per game where he's late off snap...

Todd McShay ‏@McShay13  3h3 hours ago
<p style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">If convinced he's driven to be great at next level, I'd take Armstead over Ray, Fowler, Gregory. Don't want to hear about 2.5 sacks, either

<p style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">Look at top sack guys in NFL. Common thread: All capable of winning with power -Watt, Houston, Mario, JPP, Suggs, Quinn... You get the point
