I hope it's a team friendly deal.... I'm ok with it...let's solidify the RT position and get some better depth.

I agree with Badger. I know it's not a popular position but for as bad as the line was, it was worse when Kalil was out. I am happy to keep him as long as the deal is team friendly.

I would say if Kalil re signs there is a very good chance the Vikings land a big FA Olineman

Not sure i am excited about this but I guess it depends on the cost and who else we sign.

I will also be happy if he heads over to New England and picks up a ring.... Odds are pretty good I will be happy I'll say this, if AD is in NE and they find themselves in the SB again and their opponent is not us, I'll root for NE for the first time...

Life Of A Vikes Fan @skolbros 13s Matt Kalil will re sign with the #Vikings Cmon. I have always supported Zimmer and Co but this is a major mistake.
Kalil has been terrible. I will only accept this if Kalil is being signed as a back up, which I doubt.

The problem is the options available. Whitworth was a dream bridge signing but he's not going anywhere. Okung / Clady have the same issues as Kalil. Reiff is a much better RT. I've always said that Kalil may be the answer unless someone springs free...and draft aggressively to replace.

We're on the verge of flushing $6.7m down the toilet for S Floyd this season after we flushed $11m last year on Kalil...and to top it off, we very well may be flushing more money down the drain on Kalil.
Kalil is 100% healthy? He's been saying that the last 3 offseasons....and even when he is healthy, he's not even league average at best.
I hope we at least shore-up the interior of the OL so Sam has a pocket to step-up into.

I remember when Kalil was drafted, I think the two most often quoted phrases, were:
"Plug and play day 1 L OT. Pencil him in, for the next decade"
And, by Odin, that's exactly what were gonna do, lol. Smh
