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.

      You're saying the same thing as I said.  Until Jordan becomes an active part of recruiting and funding, this school will continue to fall way behind.  But to say Michael Jordan or the Jordan brand doesn't matter anymore, which is what you said, is flat out wrong.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Basbear · Posted

      I have not learnt my lesson and will always want Uber athletic profiles. Sorry, Im a whore about it.... Im not the right guy to defend Kenyon, I just have a understanding with this years draft, numbers, and panthers roster. He is more of "upside/project" and we are talking 19th pick here too.  I know about the years of all the mock drafts with TEs in them and I did want Pitts too.... Look I love the current TEs on the roster too, just this guy should be better than any of them at their best.  Right now I feel OT is the correct target, but panthers as a org are trying to win in 2026 than 2027. So tea leaves and all, Kenyon would help this year. You can even say flex him to slot for most of the snaps and think of tmac on smoke routes with Kenyon blocking for him. I just hate BY is the shooter..... warren, I would say he's the better prospect even without his rookie year, *but he was late bloomer like XL if Im right, plus age was 25ish?? Bears picked love above him, mainly cause of recs.  You can make a case that Kenyon is not a TE, but a moving weapon for offense that can be in the backfield, on the LOS, slot, and even X.... imean he's got XLs combine on some numbers.... He would be better to a offense mad scientist type...is that Dave? or is that bevell?? I think the Panthers should have him as a 19 pick, with others...

      That's one of the best power play games I've seen us have in a while.
