Golden Nuggets: Look at Arik Armstead now

I spent a lot of time during the past offseason quoting articles and using PFF stats to defend Arik Armstead. It did not seem to matter what he did last season, people just looked at his sack count and repeated the same mantra about how he was a mediocre defensive player and a draft bust. Most people thought I was crazy when I kept repeating that we should try to sign him to a multiyear contract. I felt like, if we wanted a team friendly contract, it was the right time to get it done.

It is amazing how quick things can change.
