Will Armah Be Active On Sunday?

So now that he's up on the 53 the question is will he be active on gameday or not? 

Here are the last week's inactives with everyone healthy:

RB Cameron Artis-Payne

DE Daeshon Hall

LB Jeremy Cash

C Greg Van Roten

OT John Theus

QB Brad Kaaya

CB LaDarius Gunter

 

Honestly, can't see why any of these guys would be active over Armah, after bringing him up this week. 

CAP clearly not going to be active with Stew, McC and Fozzy all healthy, considering he was never active last year when Stew was healthy when we didn't have McC.

Hall unlikely to be up as our DL depth is wholesome without him. Likely a redshirt year for him if no injuries, which is just fine.

Cash already has Norris ahead of him so probably not.

Van Roten, maybe if Kalil can't go but in that case Kalil would take this inactive spot.

Theus, no need for more depth active on the OL.

Kaaya, no.

Gunter, likely not as we already have a fair amount of depth at corner active.

 

So I think he'll almost certainly be active, and evidence also seems to point to him actually contributing on offense. Dickson had been playing the FB position for us but now he'll be taking over Olsen's role so those snaps are up for grabs, and they aren't going to Manhertz... Big opportunity for the kid, hoping he takes advantage and shows something in pass pro, lead blocking and even the receiving game or short yardage runs. 

 

Thoughts on Armah's role this weekend and going forward?

I think he has to be because just in case one of Dickson or Manhertz goes down we are throwing out half the playbook with only 1 FB/TE available.

Dickson takes over Olsen's full time TE spot. Manhertz plays Dickson's TE2 snaps and Armah plays Dickson's FB snaps.

Armah should get more time with the ones in practice period.   I've never really been one to latch on to specific players on the team but Armah has caught my eye more than most rookies over the years in his limited play.  He just seems to be a baller and we need more ballers on this team.  Give Armah a chance please.

it just makes sense. if you're intent on shuffling dickson into olsen's role, then you have to put armah into dickson's role. we have to have that extra blocker because the 5 we have up front just can't do the job consistently enough.

 

Manhertz makes more sense in Dicksons role.

 

I think Armah will be an additional tool, not replacing one.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
