zero awareness has been his motto since day 1.

Both he and ST do this.

No, he doesn't.

I like dude, he has a chance to have his best season playing big end for the 49ers next season. Could be a very imposing front 4 this coming season.

Final Grading for Aweak ArmHurts in my opinion.. He's been given enough chances.

They already signed him for $9 million for one year didn't they. That makes him very easy to trade if they draft Williams and find him expendable. The new team wouldn't be taking on a huge salary and he is still young.

No other gm is dumb enough to pay AA that kind of money.

They picked up Armstead's option last year while he was still on his rookie contract. The $9 mil was the price set by the formula the league uses to figure these things out. I agree that it is splitting hairs a bit but agreeing to pay someone their option money is slightly different than offering them a deal for $9 million a year. By all accounts he did a good job in the running game last year. I agree with the poster above who says that Armstead's biggest problem is learning how to finish plays. Maybe the new DE line coach they hired will help him figure that part of his game out. Marsh was cut as I recall and, if I'm not mistaken, had more sacks than Harold Landry last year who many in the forum were all hot and bothered about. Not sure how that equates to giving him free money. Now they have a proven pass rusher in Ford and a chance to pick up either Bosa or Allen in the draft this year who are probably both rated higher than anybody but Chubb in last year's draft.

I will admit that Ward remains something of a head scratcher but again, by all accounts, the coaches seem to like him a lot. One of them just said he was the best free safety on the team so clearly they see something in him from his practices and work in the film room that we as fans are not seeing. Hopefully he will stay healthy this year and give everyone sitting at home on their couches a chance to see what the coaches are seeing. Since it is only a one year prove it deal I don't really have an issue with it.

Get ready for an extension in camp, if not, at least a dozen teams will be interested in FA next year, coaches like AA for a reason and when healthy he is arguably the best asset on the current dline.

Drafting Williams means shopping Buckner if anyone. Buckner would not beat out AA at BE

You keep going back to shopping Buckner. Not happening. Not happening.

Bucker and Ford are the only starting caliber Defensive linemen we have. Rest are rotational guys imo.
