I think he is ok as a 3rd DE. His numbers where pretty good last year. Not a bad guy to play 400-500 snaps.
No. ‘Not a bad guy’. But not one you pay big money to keep either. And not another player the team and fans suddenly prop up so they can feel better.
Parsons is your main event as a pass rusher, but you want to he able to drop him in coverage too. You want to go into the season with a guy like Armstrong as a rotational guy that can keep guys fresh. Not quite as someone who you want rushing in place of Parsons.
The money he gets is key. If its small enough, it doesnt take us out of the pass rusher market. FWIW Fisher was saying his sources in the organization say an Armstrong extension doesnt effect them looking at outside rushers
Small money I won’t take issue with. But I don’t want to hear anybody talking up Armstrong as the ‘answer’. It’s sickening.
