Number Five: Terron Armstead

Terron Armstead has been a dominant, speedy offensive tackle for the New Orleans Saints since they drafted him 75th overall (third round) in the 2013 NFL Draft. Armstead, 29, has been widely regarded as one of the NFL’s best offensive tackles when he’s healthy.

Armstead has been a very good offensive tackle for the New Orleans Saints, but the team has always been forced to have a reliable backup in his position due to his frequent injuries. Armstead has spent seven years in the NFL and has yet to play all 16 games in a season.

Despite his setbacks, Armstead has still managed to attend two Pro Bowls, and start 71 out of his 75 career games.

Armstead is a lock to make the Saints’ final roster in 2020.
