Matt Kalil to be cut?

[TheSpecialJuan]

I hope he gets released and I hope we sign him.

#60 is already better and on our team

I'd like him as a backup. I think the starting RT position is Daryl's to lose right now.

Maybe so but he already is having knee issues.  And I would rather Matt have the opportunity to compete for the position.

Matt was a Pro Bowler his first year. Why not give him a try for cheap?

He was a Pro Bowler because of his name recognition, and his draft status.

And the former probably led to the latter being higher than he should have been.

Don't see it happening. Would YOU want to play alongside your much better brother when you were supposed to be much better than him?

Perfect opportunity to compete, get even better, and not allow any sack between the two of you all year.

[LinvilleGorge]

Sure, why not?  Should be cheap.  Even if he doesn't start, we need to address OT depth anyway.

We signed Jonathan Martin for goodness sake.  Zero reason not to bring in Matt for cheap if possible.

Holy crap that's one hell of point...

Vikings fans absolutely hate him fwiw.

To be fair, Titan fans hated Oher too.

If, as has been suggested, the problem is a lack of desire/passion for the game, I probably wouldn't bother. That'd likely just be Martin all over again.

If it's something else though, he might just be worth a look.

In this particular case, I'd say figuring out whether or not it's worth a shot is probably easier than usual because you have a resource that you don't generally have when it comes to this sort of thing.

 If I'm Gettleman, I go ask his brother what's up.

Damn straight I would.  I think anyone who has brothers (blood or otherwise) knows that there's no better feeling than going to war with your brother by your side.  That kind of poo just feels...right.  If we can get him, I hope we do.

Throw in the added bonus of getting to kick his ass in practice drills.

(yes, I have a brother)

Would love him to compete for the right side.

I forgot Jonathan Martin was a person.
