Based on the fact that they've got an extra socket and a 20 strenght bonus compared to the 10 strenght bonus the heroic morchok bracers have I'd say (and simcraft confirms this) that for fury the crafted bracers are superior due to having more strenght and expertise being way more valuable than mastery.

But since fury is only better than arms on heroic spine, and since you need to dump all the expertise you can, since tendon does not have parry/dodge table, Morchok bracers are better.

Well, including gems (no extra blacksmith gems), we have :

Rockhide Bracers HM :
Str : 346
Crit : 219
Mast : 159

Bracers of Destructive Strength :
Str : 351
Crit : 175
Exp : 151

You really think that Bracers of Destructive Strength are better than Rockhide Bracers HM? 5 more Strength, 44 Crit less. No matter what is the third stat (which will certainly be reforged and has more value for Rockhide Bracers HM), Rockhide Bracers HM are better than the crafted ones.

It completely depends on how bad mastery is. If mastery is near worthless it doenst matter if you reforge it off, you have 100 points left of near worthless. Which is what makes the crafted ones better.

Expertise's value over crit is subjective to your reforge, as both expertise and hit before specials cap would obviously outpace other secondary stats but the truth of it is its only worth the value that the rest of your gear gets reforged to because of it.
