Minnesota is a running team. They have the best RB in football. Kalil would be a huge upgrade in their run blocking.
Playing GB and Detroit and Chicago twice each also means having to block Matthews, Avril and Peppers six times a year. Ponder's job right now is not to screw things up too terribly, but either way having a stud LT to keep the league's best pass rushers away sure won't hurt him.
I love Claiborne because he's a Tiger, but I'm also not 100% sold that he is a lockdown #1 corner. Kalil is even more "can't-miss" than Luck IMO.
