Matt Kalil to be cut?

Would be very interesting to see if Carolina would want to sign him.  Team him up with big brother.  Could move him to RT.  Didn't Remmers come from the Viking stable.   Maybe their O-line coach sucks and he would do much better under Matsko.

Wouldn't it be nice if we,... (Get the ditti going in your head!) 

picked him up for a cool deal too and he worked out as our new starting right( or left if Oher moves back) tackle?

then grab Coples on the same sort of deal. Draft Ogbah, then Derrick Henry and pharaoh cooper? 

Prince would be our high priced free agent or Cromartie as medium.

In this particular case, I'd say figuring out whether or not it's worth a shot is probably easier than usual because you have a resource that you don't generally have when it comes to this sort of thing.

If we were in-season with only 53 spots to fill, then I'd agree that MAYBE he's worth a look. However, it's the offseason, we'll have 90 players on the roster and there will be several we bring in that never play in an NFL game.

There's really no reason NOT to at least give it a shot if he wants to come here. I'm sure he'd get a small guarantee - if at all - so that cutting him has little impact.

Fair point.

My brother is 61, a Cowboy fan, obsessed with hunting, only really watches WVU football and doesn't know his way around the internet.

So yeah, that ain't happenin.

So.. he is younger than you, smarter than you, and likes the best College Football team?

I honestly wouldn't mind the move at all. Matt Kalil was highly rated as one of the best offensive lineman coming out of USC in 2012. He was also selected to the pro bowl in his rookie season replacing Trent Williams. I think Matt has some talent and could at some more size and power to a pretty good offensive line we have right now. If the Vikings cut him, I think his best chance to bouncing back is with the coaching staff we have and his brother Ryan. If things can workout with Matt, this could make a really good offensive line potentially dominate.

Not going to be a vet minimum deal but definitely could be a good pickup and at minimum be a solid backup.
