That's not a good sign about Poz's injury.

checked his twitter account.  His profile pick makes him look like a skinny highschool kid.  Are you sure he's not some sort of corner back?

The guy was pretty productive in 2013 and 2014. I remember hearing lots of good things after his rookie year. Could be a nice signing.

Well, he could be, has anyone ever heard of him? You don't forget a name like that.

He's a 230-lb. linebacker that runs a 4.85. Jeremiah George-esque numbers.

Well, I hope he's a quick study.  The less I have to see of Armbuster the better.

Remember how, back in the preseason, Armbrister, Grant and 24-of-38 were the hottest things since the microwave oven?

Several sites including Wiki and Rotoworld confirm the signing. Rotoworld said he signed as insurance for Poz who broke his hand.


 

He does have a young look about him per his Falcons profile...
http://www.atlantafalcons.com/team/roste...3b3bb81256

 

Bartu was a starting LB with the Falcons in 2013 and 2014. This year he was on the roster early for depth and then waived. It appears he was facing a two-game suspension, but the suspension was dropped by the league. Looking around I'm seeing he played outside in 2013 and then moved to MLB in 2014, although he generally drew poor grades from PFF.

I think you're getting him confused with Barkevious Mingo.
