Our next LT may not already be on the team, but...

....his brother Ryan is. Minn. drafted Matt with the 4th overall pick in the 2012 draft and expected him to be a 10 year fixture at LT. After a pro bowl rookie season, they thought they had their man. However, his play the last two years has deteriorated to the point that Bell may have a better PFF rating. There will be no 5th year option and there is apparently talk that he could be cut.(http://vikingsjournal.com/_/minnesota-vikings-news/minnesota-vikings/what-to-do-with-matt-kalil-r298).

This is the exact type of reclammation project that Gman should be looking for. At his point, he should not be worth more than a 4th or 5 th round pick. Uniting him with his brother and getting him healthy, would hopefully get his game turned around.

Been discussed ad nauseum, he was literally the only LT graded worse than Bell. Sign for an incredibly cheap deal as a FA? Sure, why not. Give up a draft pick, even a 7th? No thanks.[/quote

Normally I would dispute you.....but Getts drafts extremely well. I would part with a 7th if Getts thought it was a good idea tho. Could be a steal if Matt panned out.

    • We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.
    • Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
    • I think there's a ton of potential in that WR room. But they really are unproven right now. Hopefully they live up to the hype.
