Side question: How bad was that knee injury? Odd to me that he had no issues (yet another beat I’ve felt in a long time offseason quote), then had a “minor procedure” and was estimated to be back in a couple weeks, then spent the entire season on IR, and is still not healthy? Seems very Otah ish to me

Matt 'Speedbump' Kalil,

I couldn't agree more.  I am almost assured that you mean we all know that you could be the absolute worst starting left tackle in the NFL. I have never seen one player so detrimental to the state of the franchise and the health of one player than you. At "full health" as you usually claim to be year in and year out, I wouldn't want you protecting my son's quarterback. He's 9.

We didn't want him to return and get legitimately hurt to where we couldn't release him. 

The Texans have thrown away $7.5M in cap space this year if they carry him to the regular season. How in the HELL did Kalil convince a team to give him $7.5M after completely fleecing us? Dude has the GOAT agent.

Some guys just never come back from those injuries....not all ACL tears are the same.

Hate it, and really wish that he could have worked out here long term, but it wasn't in the cards.

The one I hate worse though?  Oher.  While not great, he was good enough, tough the way he went out.

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
