Shiii, Remmers was terrible, worse than Kalil, just made less, and was at RT. i know a lot of people give Kalil a hard time, but he actually graded out well as 2017 came to a close (final half of the season), in an 11-5 season. He wasn't elite, but he was solid down the stretch. I think he average like a mid 70's grade throughout the 2nd half of the year. 

Paradis the Ceneter most of us are happy about was around 80's if memory serves before injury. We could be doing worse at LT aside from the contract. However that is simply the market for avg, or even below avg LT's given college T's aren't coming in prepared for the pro game.

Feels like a lot of people forget that we were playing well, we just had NO RECEIVERS vs New Orleans.

This just makes me respect PFF less, not like Matt Kalil more.

Maybe so but you can't deny the names on the list, last I checked no one here was credited with any scouting experience, team management, etc. I'm not saying PFF is the end all be all. But for fans aside from bias opinions from bad games or slow starts it helps paint a clearer picture. 

All I'm saying is a lot of people here remember him for for the start of 2017 vs the finish, and if you're happy with Paradis then you should take the blinders off and consider Kalil is at least average and in the league there isn't a lot of that to go around.

Mike remmers cost this team more than any player has ever cost a franchise. Literally.

He had the game losing play @ Atlanta and in the super bowl. (which would've been our first, 19-0)

If you can find a résumé for somebody even close to that I'll pie you .

I dont need to be a scout or GM to know that Matt Kalil freaking sucks.

Remmers actually played really well in 2014-2015. Unfortunately a lot of us have short memories and only remember the Super Bowl. Admit it was a horrible day to have a bad game, but most of that was on coaching. No OC in their right mind would have left Von Miller 1-on1 that often in the Super Bowl. That was borderline insane and highly inept at best.

When you're actually trying to prove Matt Kalil is good in order to take a swipe at Gettleman (which is kind of a weird juxtaposition on it's own) it might be time to seek help :Eyes_Emoji_42x42:

The swipe is at the interest in Remmers. 

I've seen your posts here over the years, so I'm not surprised you responded that way. At the very least I can source some information. Kalil talent wise at LT wasn't a bad signing, the contract was, however when Funchess gets 13M for a year, and guys like Humphries and Beasley are getting 9m a year it's all determined by the market, and what is avaialble and who has cap to spend. 

The point which most have missed is I'm not bringing back a player that wasn't good enough to be extended the first time around, and this is Gett being Gett going after an aging vet that isn't good. But the Kalil bashers stepped in as usual and derailed. I'll leave you all to it, hell half of ya'll want Cam gone. 

Even Remmers cashed in in MIN. 

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the deal is a five-year contract worth $30 million.

I mean we did have the number 1 offense in the league and went 15-1 the year Remmers was starting for us.  Von Miller showed him who his daddy was in the Super Bowl, but I dont remember him being completely terrible overall.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
