That is a really good question right now. IDK, where does he fit in the 4-3 defense? Didn't see much from him in the LEO position.
I can't tell.
Obviously wasn't a fan of his during that draft but gave him a chance. He showed some flashes, feels like there's more hype than production at times. You(in general) can see the potential to be something of a factor in games but it hasn't materialized yet.
Now throw in the various injuries mounting up.... idk... maybe he needs to change his physique and become more of a bull than he is now?
I really didn’t like him coming out of Oregon—I despised that pick. As a matter of fact many draft analysts were doing their mocks and had projected us selecting him weeks or maybe even months prior to the draft. The first time I witnessed that i almost vomited.
Anyway, he sort grew on me. Not sure what it is, but I think he can become a very good player in the league. Not an elite player but surely someone who can make 2 or 3 pro bowl appearances. I’m not even sure we’re using him correctly. He’s a 3/4 end. If he ends up being traded to another team (Pats or Chargers for instance) he’d ball out for them, but it must be in the right scheme.
I think that was the worst kept secret ever. Everyone predraft was saying the 49ers was going to draft Armstread.
