.@Panthers C Ryan Kalil says he's "on track" - not ahead of sked - in recovery from Lisfranc injury. Admits rehab is testing his patience

 

Panthers C Ryan Kalil (Lisfranc surgery) says he is "on track" in his recovery.

 
Kalil says the rehab is "testing his patience." Early word in December was that Kalil was expected to be ready for OTAs, but that seems uncertain at this point. The 28-year-old suffered the injury in Week 5 last season and even if he isn't ready for OTAs, he should be all systems go for training camp.

 

Definitely some good news from Kalil.

Im already not getting good vibes about his rehab - weve been through this with other guys too many times.

I am not worried, but I thought he was ready to go.  Kalil will be better with some bruising guards beside him because he is not a bruiser himself.  In addition, he will help the young Guards.

 

I think we are rebuilding the OL gradually.  Next year, we sign the T.  

About his age (28).  A center can play until he is 36 or so, so he could be with us for several more years.

Good news!

 

We need Kalil playing at a high level come week 1. His recovery and ability to get back to where he was before his injury is imperative to this teams success on offense this season. 

 

Agree.  If we are going to have a successful season (better than .500 in my mind) than him being healthy and returning to his previous performance level is a necessity.

    • USA vs Germany today 3:10pm. Mens schedule:
    • It is like when you go to da buffet at da Golden Corral and dey have all dis food and you get the same thing every time.   There is probably something you would like more, but you go to da same ol racks and get da same ol food every time.  Not sure why I am writing in trailer park dialect, but hey, watcha gonna dooo.
    • If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.
