"It's about getting experience playing beside each other," Williams said. "Playing with the twos, I'm used to playing with (right guard)  Chris Scotticon-article-link.gif . Now with the ones, I've got to get used to playing with  Trai Turnericon-article-link.gif , and they play different.

"It's a matter of getting young guys like me to develop that chemistry with them. It's about them being able to trust me."

Been saying for a few weeks now it is just a matter of time before we see Daryl Williams next to Trai Turner full time this season. POssibly moving to the left next year like Jordan Gross did. 

 

Turner and Williams with Ward and Stew running to the right? Yes please.

As we slowly but surely solidify an offensive line for years to come...

Turner: 22 years old

Williams: 22 years old

Norwell: 23 years old

Remmers: 26 years old

This may be the best part of it... If they stay healthy, those 3 have potentially at least 4 years together

Not to beat a dead horse but I was just thinking this the other day and how much more it hurts we didn't land Laeel Collins.. Our O line would have been set for nearly a decade

So, Kalils last season here?

Maybe.  This year is the biggest cap hit of his contract at $11.795M.  There was no cap relief cutting him this year.  It would've actually cost us a little against the cap.  Next year, that figure drops to $10.329M and releasing him would offer $4.395M in cap savings.  After next year, Kalil actually comes really cheap in terms of cap hit counting $3.579M in '17 and only $1.779M in '18.

If we needed the cap room next year, Kalil would actually be a good candidate for a restructure if he's still playing at a high level since his final two years are so low in terms of cap figure.  Just not sure Gettleman would want to push dead money into future years on a player who is on the wrong side of 30.

I honestly think Kalil will play out his contract here in Carolina.  His play would really have to dip this season for him to get axed.  Hell, he'd be well worth the money to keep in '18 if it was even in a reserve role.

    • Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.
    • 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)
