Should we?? Let's think about it. We could have Spikes and Mayo up the middle. Hightower and Jones can start as outside linebackers, with Ninkovich playing a situational, Vrabel-like role.
We would have to build onto the defensive line, and would have to be addressed in FA or early in the draft. Wilfork could play NT like he did earlier on in his career. But what really makes this all intruiging is Armstead's potential fit. At slightly under 300 pounds, he could make a great 3-4 DE.
Despite his potential, however, he is not a slam dunk. So signing a guy like Chris Canty, Desmond Bryant, or Alan Branch would be a likely move in this scenario.
I'm not saying this should be done, but looking at what we have... it might not be a bad idea.
