Apparently it's not definite. I read something a few days ago which made it seem that Kalil was definitely returning. However, it seems like there's a real good chance he does return. http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/13682485/33752962
An interesting decision. As a potential top 5 pick you would think he's a lock to come out, but others before him have gone back. Not good for anyteam look at tackle in the first as all the others get bumped up.
I would think he knows a hell of a lot more than the rest of us on that front lol. To some guys its about finishing what they started, a degree, or some otehr abstract thing. IF they stay as a group than its about a possible championship. I hope they both come out becasue it improves the depth of the draft a bit and the first round alot, but I understand why they could want to stay.
Best Safety available to cover TE's. Best TE available to mismatch against teams like the Jets. I like it

http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nfl/...s-usc-trojans-matt-kalil-enter-2012-nfl-draft Good news, that should aid someone falling to us.
Very good news for us and someone else in the top 2-4 of the draft or any team needs a tackle s others get a bump down.
Yup. I was thinking the same thing. I'm guessing this also enhances Matt Barkley turning pro which will also force someone else to fall.
Someone will definitely fall to us, but will we pull the trigger on them. I guarantee you that a projected top 10 pick will fall into the early to mid 20's, I hope it is at a position that we could use. It happened with Bowers last year, and it will happen with someone again this year. I personally think that guy to drop possibly out of the first round will be Landry Jones this year. He ended the season as bad as you possibly can.
Not much change in the draft order from last week. Jets still in playoffs, Cincy is 8-6 too. Jets get the playoff nod in week 15 since they have a better record against common opponents vs Cincy.
1 Indianapolis Colts 2-13 .552 2 St. Louis Rams 2-13 .571 3 Minnesota Vikings 3-12 .565 4 Cleveland Browns 4-11 .516 5 Jacksonville Jaguars 4-11 .529 6 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 4-11 .545 7 Washington Redskins 5-10 .476 8 Miami Dolphins 5-10 .511 9 Carolina Panthers 6-9 .482 10 Buffalo Bills 6-9 .498 11 Kansas City Chiefs 6-9 .516 12 Arizona Cardinals 7-8 .476 13 Philadelphia Eagles 7-8 .500 14 Seattle Seahawks 7-8 .509 15 San Diego Chargers 7-8 .516 16 Chicago Bears 7-8 .556 17 Tennessee Titans 8-7 .453 18 Dallas Cowboys 8-7 .467 19 New York Jets 8-7 .502 20 Oakland Raiders 8-7 . 507 If the Jets lose and the Cowboys, Bears, Titans & San Diego all win, which is very possible, the Jets could be drafting 15. The SOS on OAK, PHIL & SEA is too close to call.....with an Oakland loss. Phil win and Seahawk win. More likely a Jet's loss vs Miami we will be drafting around 17. A Jet's win and we will be drafting 19/20 (No playoffs), if Titans, Cincy & (Denver/Oak), any of thses teams is a winner out of that group.
Well so far the Bears and Titans have won, Chargers are currently winning, So it's starting to look like 3 out of 4 are going to win, the Cowboys of course haven't started their game yet but I favor the Giants in that game). So the Odd's of picking 15th or 16th are looking really good right now. Not happy about that mind you, just looking for a silver lining here.
15 Besides Buifict or Upshaw who else is upthere at OLB going forward were we pick? I know safeties are week... WR is DEEP this year. If not how about RT/LT( I think Dbrick should move to RT thats just me he has been lousy on the other edge. BPA would be ideal but
Upshaw, Melvin Ingram, Mercilus, Riley Reiff, Decastro, Alshon, Floyd, Jenkins, Burfict and Dre Kirkpatrick (converted to safety) could all be there, possibly trent richardson (bbut not likely)... The only silver lining to a terrible day
My guess right now is 16 with some more luck maybe 15. The Seahawk game is important too. Root for a Dallas win!!!
