I predict Armstead will, hold out, then get arrested, then he will get injured, then spread rumors in the media, then retire...do i win for most negative post?

Exciting pick. Only 20 yrs old! N only one year as a starter. JT is one of the best linemen coach out there. Better to let him mentor him at this age since he hasnt picked up bad habits. This was clearly a pick for the future. In tomsula I trust.

Scott Brown & Aubrayo Franklin are going to coach him up...with a little Tomsula's "hands on" from time to time.

DRAFT Profile: http://www.nfl.com/draft/2015/profiles/arik-armstead?id=2552493
STRENGTHS Improved by leaps and bounds from 2013 to 2014. Elite size with ability to add more bulk to his frame. Quick-twitch athlete. Explodes upfield into blockers with good pad level and hip snap, gaining instant leverage against the run and often jarring them into the backfield. Gets good arm extension to control offensive linemen and peppers them with powerful hands. Can unlock quickly from blocks. Has above-average tackle radius thanks to his length and quickness.
WEAKNESSES Power-based pass rush with very little production to show for it over his time at Oregon. Plays tall as pass rusher and doesn't use his hands to gain consistent advantages. Has no reliable counter moves when rush stalls. Gets caught up in whipping man in front of him rather than making the ball carrier his focus. Will win against an offensive lineman, but doesn't put himself into position to finish.

actually, okoye has more years under his belt playing his position than armstead does.
