Matt Kalil

[Toker Smurf]

Am I remembering correctly, do we have an out from his contract after one season? If so, do we cut bait (assuming no drastic improvement)? I'm thinking, yes. We can pay someone, much less, to suck.

2 seasons I think.

Well, that's a positive. Move him to another spot and see what Moton can do.

Matt Kalil's been pretty good lately. Against the Eagles, he made one or two boneheaded plays, but I'm surprised tbh. Upgrade over Oher imo.

But we need to cut off with Daryl Williams. Put Moton in.

Always remember, Whitworth was there for the taking.

As Zod pointed out players who have been on this line for years don't know WTH they're doing right now. Long term I think Kalil may be OK.

He was never coming to the east coast and JR was always going to make Dave bring in Ryans brother.

Russell Okung was available

In all honesty is could be because Ryan Kalil is out. He really was the leader of that unit. With that said it's not going to solve our play calling and personnel issues.

Interesting point, I hadn't thought of before. Not inconceivable, based on other situations (Bersin).

When you think most of our FAs signings were former Panthers too... We didn't even talk to any other tackles. Just doesn't seem like DG.

Both of them are  good, it's the interior OL that has been stinking it up lately.

Looking long term, Moton should be at RT and Williams a backup but he could probably do better than Matt right now on the left side.    

Team McBeane took a decent LT prospect one pick ahead of us in the second.

We knew signing Matt Kalil was a risk. He was ran out of Minnesota after being a top 5 pick for them.. You don't get rid of franchise young LT's..With that being said, I thought it was a questionable signing and never had huge expectations for Kalil. He has actually performed better than I thought though, so I'm not going to be a Kalil hater.  Those who expected him to be a Pro Bowl LT, well that's you're own fault
