Jaqueefi Fart blows up a WR across the middle

While we're on names, there was that Gurley commercial:

So many ways I could go with that...

I'll just say try watching your team play and maybe you'll find what you're looking for.

I am a big critic of this guy...and I think he has make big strides since the pre-season...and i think he could develop into a starter...but he will not live up to the first round investment this team made on him...

This. Even the Cards homers today brought up Armstrong and talked about how much his rookie season seems to parallel that of Calais Campbell's as a rookie.

Eric is leaps and bounds ahead of where he was in the preseason and will be a starter next season.

Take PFF #s with a grain of salt but their observations match what Ive been seeing when it comes to Armstead.

This was the third-straight game above +1.0 for the 49ers' first-round draft pick, DE Arik Armstead, who managed five combined pressures in 22 snaps. Armstead did most of his work in the first half against Atlanta's interior line with his play at 1:09 of the second quarter standing out. He also drew a holding penalty in the third quarter which nullified a significant first down conversion for the Falcons.
