More to come!









What are the #Chiefs getting in George Karlaftis?

Had an NFC Personnel executive tell me “He reminds me of J.J. Watt, when Watt was coming out. An explosive and versatile playmaker who has a high motor and can line up at 3,5, or 7. Very strong kid” #NFL #NFLDraft pic.twitter.com/5qM3g6OrMr

George Karlaftis was drafted with pick 30 of round 1 in the 2022 draft class. He scored a 9.23 RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 116 out of 1503 DE from 1987 to 2022. https://t.co/iXXBvnoFJc #RAS #Chiefs pic.twitter.com/eZ9XjNRDUB

Definitely would. The top pass rushers in the NFL typically end somewhere around 70 to 80

I'd have gone w/ Williams at 54 but I was really torn between him and Jackson. I liked both guys a lot. Jackson came on strong for me as the draft approached.

What I really wish we'd have done was take Tariq Woolen at 135 instead of that scrub from Pigsknuckle, Arkansas.

That would make him probably the best in the NFL, if not, top 5 at least.

If he's even getting 3 per game, that would be great.
My hope for him was 3-4 pressures/gm. I wouldn't say 3/gm is 'great' but it's okay and a fine start for a rookie.

And the type of pressure would be relevant as well. A hurry is one thing, a hit is obviously something better (and a sack better still).

A lot of hurries just don't end up meaning much. Good QBs have fast clocks - about half the time they get hurried, they just do what they were gonna do anyway.

You’re bordering on O.City hate right now.

Just for reference, here's the top 5 in pressures from 2021

Crosby at 82
Hendrickson at 79
Ngakoue at 71
Nick Bosa at 68
Garrett at 66

And that's not a knock on Karlaftis as much as it demonstrates the need for genuine depth and complementary skill-sets on the line.

It galls the absolute shit out of me that Veach and company thought they could get away with adding 1 player to a DL that was obviously not good last season.
Sometimes you just get lucky. No better example than Seattle. They were a dreadful drafting franchise for years after the LOB ended and this year they got very good book end tackles, a RB that flashed a lot last weekend, a damn good corner on day 3 and another corner (Bryant) who has flashed.

They just killed this draft

As of last week Nick Bosa had 31. He’s on pace for over 100 :-)

He's a Bosa. He's getting injured sooner or later.

Do you know what the word closer means?

This FO seems to really struggle to identify pass rushers in the draft.

Yes, especially when he identified it as a position that needed upgrading after last season.

We had 2 1 picks and have gotten jack shit from either of them this far. That sucks.
