Don't Expect Ryan Kalil to be Cut

Hurneys comments on Ryan

"On veteran center Ryan Kalil, who has said the 2018 season will be his last: “In my mind, the way I look at Ryan Kalil is the guy makes a huge difference for our line with the communication and the way he makes other players better. He’s the leader in that room. I think there is the importance that you see in what he brings to your team. When he came back the last four games, I thought he played well. He should just get better and stronger during the offseason. I think the importance of having him back is significant for us.""

Ive felt some distain and frustration with Kalil primarily with his injuries. If he can stay on the feild and off the sideline im cool with it. 

 

Hasnt he missed more games than he has played last 2-3 years? 

 

Either way, gives us a little more time to find a replacement. Needs to be priority asap

How can you feel disdain for someone who's not playing due to injury?! It's not like he got hurt off the field. He's one of the top 5 centers in the NFL and he's been healthy most of his career. We should absolutely be looking for his heir apparent, but cutting him to save money would be really short sighted in my opinion.

That is one expensive clipboard.

Hurney's biggest downfall is his loyalty to his players.  I think he gets emotionally attached to them...Hurney is right, Kalil is a leader.  But you have to be on the damn field, Marty.  Why MH thinks he will be better after the off season is because EVERYONE gets better (healthy) during the off season.

Yeah we honestly run the organization too much like a family and not like a competitive business.

Historically the teams that have won Superbowls and continue to win decade after decade are the ones that draft well and have made one tough decision after another. We pass out lifetime payment plans to make sure guys great great great grandkids are still cashing our checks.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
