I want to preface what I'm about to say with: AA is still a bust and was an awful pick.
But, am I the only one here who thinks he's been at least serviceable? He's looked like a solid rotational player. Solid against the run, has his moments against the pass. Like if we drafted him in the 4th and he was playing like this people would be pretty happy.
He is serviceable. No matter what he does though, people will hate him

AA had one of his best rushes in the 4th when he put the right guard on skates and bulldozed him right into Eli. So what does Saleh do? He doesn't give him a single snap on NYG's final go-ahead drive.
But he should. This is the NY Giants. I'm always amazed by the sports press giving credit to players that should be doing their jobs against less talented players. A DT of his size and strength and draft position against a OG 1:1 ..... of course. The real question is can we improve the position given the $ invested? I ask the same of Mitchell.

Armstead is giving us roughly the production you'd expect for a low end third round pick as a 3-4 DE

HOW MUCH more do we need to see?
We have a rookie (Julian Taylor) who almost outplayed every DL we have during the preseason and should see some action now so that we'll know if he's worth to keep next year..
I really don't understand why we keeping him on the sideline..

if we can't get anyone better then keep him.
ER must be our #1 priority - Period.
If it wasn't there's a number of DL guys in the draft who could come in and out perform AA from day on.e
But DL isn't our #1 problem - it's ER.
So we have to see who we can grab in the later rounds or in FA to replace AA.
If we can't get a better replacement - he stays.

Between all the guys we have, including ST, AA's replacement is on the team. If we don't already have a replacement, then something us seriously wrong with our FO.
Originally posted by dj43:For those that care, AA's pass rush rating at PFF has risen 4 points over the past several games. With over 200 snaps, it is hard to move up too much but it shows he has been improving, at least by their metric. At the same time, his run defense ranking has also risen. He is now second only to Calais Campbell among ERs.
