Does Kalil play better at RT?

[Chaos]

This team is a dumpster fire of injuries

[AceMan]

We basically Thomas Davis'ed him. Smh

They could just do the opposite of what they did with M Kalil. Sign a deal with a decent signing bonus, lots of incentives for playing time, with say, a nice roster bonus for the 3rd year. With outs built into each year. Protects the team, gives William some money up front and really good money if he stays healthy.

Thats a great deal for us with little risk, but he's gonna want 30+ million guaranteed so then what do we tell him?  Do we tell him to hit the road or do we suck it up?  It only takes one team flush with cash to get him. It'll be Norwell all over since there are even fewer productive tackles in their prime hitting free agency.

1 year $1.5 million prove it contract

So, so awesome we drafted "projects" and not offensive linemen because Ron was/is perfectly confident in Silatolu.

Doesn't sound like any of these injuries are actually all that serious. No mention of damage to the "big stuff". ACL, patellar ligament, etc.

There's never any guarantee of health for a football player, but in terms of long-term prognosis I don't see teams devaluing him too much. I think only one year of performance and being a year removed from that will hurt his value more than injury concern.

Didn't we say similar things when he was injured before?

And it was true. He was back out there quickly and then got smashed again either a blatantly dirty move. I know we all gnashed our teeth wondering if we'd rushed him back to soon, but honestly if you get hit like that you're getting hurt no matter what.

I think our future is Moton at LT and Williams at RT. If his medicals clear next year, I'm ok bringing him back, and probably on a cheaper deal than we initially thought. In a contract year, he unfortunately could not max out his value. 

IMO, our OL, if Williams comes back is more or less a LG short of a pretty stout young OL moving forward. Moton-Van Roten-Larsen-Turner-Williams. 

By the same token, if Moton can't hack it at RT and Turner's second concussion in as many years begin to take a toll....along with Williams either not being healthy or too expensive, than our OL is in shambles -- beyond anything Matt Kalil could even have anything to do with.

There’s a shortage of good Ts out there. Players come back from knees - even big linemen. He’s was All Pro last year. Some team will still pay him

[JakeDel5674]

And I got quoted for saying this guy was out for the Season. While some idiots on here held out hope. The HUDDLE is HUDDLING WAYYYYYYYYYY TOO MUCH LATELY. 

[Snake]

Even year.
