Who knows. There's a ton of questions along the OL. Huge question marks at both OT positions, RG is question mark, and then most assume Silatolu will start at LG. Honestly, the only thing we know for sure is that Kalil is the starting center. Beyond that... ?????

He was barely injured wasn't he? No reason he should not be 100% going into camp.

There was something that the public wasn't told. It started out as a simple hammy issue and then the whole situation disappeared, but he never suited up for a game.

DG also said in the day 2 draft presser that Silatolu was further in his rehab process that Kugbilla.

That doesn't sound good. I really liked that kid, especially his story. Hope he can get it in gear.

The guys injury was a hell of alot worse than we knew! He had hamstring issues then came back to soon as had to have surgery on other issues with that leg also had infections in the leg, not sure what the diagnosis was but I remember reading about it sine where if I get a link il post it up, gettleman was high on this guy because he comes from a division two football team doesn't mean he's a bad player! One good thing is he's had time to sit on the sidelines and get acclimated with the schemes and playbook etc and be in the film room without the pressure of olaying as a rookie, I hope he gets fit and healthy and get outhere playing! I seen some of his college tape and he is just what we need I he can replicate that into the nfl! But don't write the kid off because he's injured! Luke Joekel was injured ok he was a first rounder but he played badly then suffered a bad injury, you can't jut write these guys off.

Yeah it started as a muscle pull but I think Gettleman said he had knee surgery.

Yeah he had knee surgery and he had some sort of infection.... I hope the kid turns the corner. Potential wise he could be just as solid as Amini and Turner but he is very raw.

      Why not? Dude was tough as nails. Came off the field after a vicious hit and showed the coach how his ring finger was knocked out of socket halfway up. You could see the shock on Fox's face. Brad just  pulled  on the finger, grimaced, got it back in alignment and went back in for the next play and blew up an opposing linebacker or two. Dude is legendary.

      Motown let on like he'd like to play at least another 5 years in his presser. I fell he was truthful and us fans over did his knee. The guy started like 108 starts in a row and only missed like 2 games over each of the past years.  I think as long as the team agrees with his value that Motown has, he will sign another contract extension to push the void years into the 2030s.  OLmen can play at high levels up til 40. Trent williams is doing it, Richie Incognito leftd and came back to play until he hit 38. Lane Johnson is still playing at a top level while 38. You member Greg Van Roten, he's somehow still playing at 36 and he started here after being a substitute teacher years before. If you are able to get over the 32 year bump, its possible to reach 38 with luck. Colleges do a poor job of preparing new OLmen, many times that vet is better.   Rams were begging Andrew Whitworth to come back while he was 39, if you got the genes, luck and still willing to put in the hard work....it is possible to play until 38 as a OLmen*starting level*

      Shaq was a fantastic LB, he just happened to have been standing in the shadow of a Panthers great and a Hall of Famer. He was team-lead starter quality for all 32 teams of the NFL. Don't throw shade on him, he was never just a guy.
