If we have to keep Matt Kalil...heaven forbid.

We CAN cut him after this season, but it would be an expensive one for sure.

My question, what is the possibility of him being able to play guard?  And by play, I mean at least learn the position and back up the starters there?

I absolutely do not want to see him on the field, and especially not at T, but maybe he could be acceptable depth if we have to keep him on the roster?

Wonder if his height would be a negative there?

More expensive to keep him as a backup guard than it would be to cut him and bring in a practice squad body.

We should really just take the L and cut him. Be gone thot.

Matt Kalil’s weak knees would probably be even more of a detriment for him at guard.

  People need to understand this. There is NO scenario where him staying on the team saves us money or cap space in any way. None.

He has insane cap hit.  He is not getting cut.

I too want him cut at the end of the year...that is beside the point.

I do fear that Ron will want to keep him...and that makes me nervous.

I was mostly joking around, and asking you guys if you think that Matt could play guard in the NFL?

This was not meant to be a real football/cap discussion.

Did Wharton go from T to G, or was it the other way around?  I can't recall.

He is after the season. 

[mc52beast]

Someone remind me what week he is eligible to return...

I can honestly see Ron starting him when he’s able to play. Maybe he gets pulled but I would almost guarantee he starts one more game

I'd like to see what happens with Williams first, tho it doesnt matter since any two of Moton/Williams/Clark has shown to be superior.

Matt Kalil is the Amini Silatolu of our OTs.

[Carl Spackler]

If he can't do the job he was taught, what makes you think he could do a different one?

Definitely one of those moments where taking the L is the best choice....

No.  He isn't.  According to both spotrac and overthecap it costs us more money to cut him than it does to keep him next year.  Why would we do that?  It doesn't make sense.

Everyone wants him gone, sure.  But not if getting rid of him hurts us more.  I don't care if we use some injury farce to keep him at home next year.  Or we simply make him inactive every game.  Doesn't matter.  But we aren't gonna piss away 1.8 million just so we can not have MK on the roster.

Let him ride the bench we will have to take the L He cannot go back to the O-Line
