Don Gregory Says Matt Kalil Is Better Than Ryan


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Found in a draft profile in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel online:

http://m.jsonline.com/sports/packers/draftcaps20-vn4vq5d-148210085.html

"He's better than his brother," said Don Gregory, the Panthers' director of college scouting. "He's bigger, faster, stronger than his brother. He's so athletic. He will be a 10-year pro and protect your (expletive) out at left tackle."

He may (or may not) be right, but still...

I don't really expect Ryan to be majorly offended or anything, but this is the kind of thing that's a little surprising to hear from someone associated with the team.

Maybe this illustrates why scouts usually make their comments anonymously.

I don't think that is any kind of surprise or bold statement is it?

Matt is considered the best LT prospect in a number of years.

I don't think its weird either.

He is suppose to be an Elite LT.

Sooooooo why would he even say that.

Its like saying, Ronde Barber is a better CB than Tiki is a RB. Who the freak cares about comparing when they dont play the same position.

Seeing that quote out of context is the issue I think. I'd guess he is saying that as good as Ryan is, Matt could be better relative to their respective positions.

I'm sure the quote was a response to a specific question about the two.

Im still hopin that the rumors of MIN & STL wanting somebody different come true. I know its an extremely long shot, the odds are very low, but Im watchin the draft hopin he falls to 9 so I can cuss up a storm when we dont take him...I know it aint going to happen, but whats the point if I cant hope in all this bullshit pre-draft speculatin?

    • 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)
