Ryan Kalil Brother Could Slide In The Draft.

Because thats all the draft is, speculation, possibility, what if, fantasy's.

It's like you can sit here and dream that the top 3 prospects fall to us, but I personally do not like to talk about stuff I know isn't going to happen.

The fact the we're talking about the #3 prospect in this draft falling all the way to #9 when there are 5 teams ahead of us that could use him besides the Vikings, and 5 teams outside that top 10 easily willing to trade down, is just irrelevant.

You don't have to try and back him up for making a bum post.

Dude you honestly need to take a chill pill. This is just another speculation thread about the draft on what could happen. Dude no one knows what will happen after the second pick. That is called speculation. We talk about because it could happen. We could have a slight chance to draft Matt Kalil. I never said it would happen. If you hate threads like this then don't read it. Move along to another thread. Stop been such a downer. dude. -_-

I don't think TB would draft Kalil. They have two tackles they are confident in with Trueblood and Penn, but they would be the ones who would most likely trade out and take what they can. Yet I feel if Kalil is still on the board when the Rams pick, and they select Blackmon over Kalil (they desperately need a receiver), it's a lock that Kalil will fall to us. (The Jags will most likely select either Coples or Ingram, and the Dolphins already have a franchise LT)

Just a reminder that franchise LTs are one of the most valued and sought-after positions and both the Vikings and the Rams have nothing that even resembles one on their offensive line. Given Sam Bradford's injury history he doesn't make it past the Rams if he even makes it that far. Last year was only the first time since '05 that an offensive tackle wasn't taken in the top 5, and while Kalil isn't on the Joe Thomas tier he still is one of the best LT prospects in the last ten years

If the Rams pass on him if he's there at #6, they're nuts. If they landed him there, they've pulled off the greatest draft coup of all time. They would've landed a king's ransom for the #2 pick and still end up with the player they need.

Bradford is a good young QB, but he's fragile and they can't protect him right now. And that guy really think he doesn't fit their needs? Really??? Forget getting Bradford more weapons, they gotta keep him upright first.

You're right. They were expected to consider Kalil at 2. If they still got him at 6 and got all the future picks for trading down, that would give them an awesome draft.

this, this, this.

Kalil was going to go #2 in the draft in all likelihood if the pick isn't traded...

    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24. 
    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.
