yea i agree with this. but it also depends on what the OL depth looks like at that time - which could be thin if fisher and Johnstone leave early.

Armstead has been doing well in practice at defensive line, so I don't think a position change is coming. Oregon also has young talent at offensive tackle, so I see no reason to move AA back to the offensive line.

Why would they move him to OL? His heart is on D and he had a really good freshman year there. Dude is going to go high in the draft.
