He demonstrates a strong pre-snap setup, with both feet grounded, and effectively uses his impressive arm extension to maintain separation from defenders. His ability to handle double teams showcases his strength and tenacity. Armstrong shows adeptness in penetrating gaps and is reactive to quarterback movements, indicating good awareness on the field.<br>However, to elevate his game, he will need to work on improving his foot speed to enhance his adaptability during play, particularly with defensive line movements and stunts. His frame and length are advantageous while working in offensive line play, but a lower pad level when engaging off the ball could improve his offensive performance. He effectively pulls and adjusts to hit moving targets, indicating good athleticism and the ability to reach the second level.<br>Overall, Armstrong is best projected as a defensive prospect in early college assessments, with the potential to evolve into a significant contributor on the field as he progresses.<br><strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18071396/67ba888cfa6592f14014077d">Watch Film</a></strong></p>
