Chiefs *****The George Karlaftis Thread***** - Page 152

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

BTW, you said that the passrush was ass during the Broncos GDT.

He wrote him off before he even played a down.

It's great that he's finally getting the sacks instead of the hurries, but even more than that the kid is actually a playmaker. Leads the NFL in batted balls if I'm remembering right and he usually is in the right place to pounce on an offensive miscue

He’s trolling at this point. It’s why he’s doubling down on his nonsense. George is clowning the guy he wanted.

Doesn't he have 2 fumbles recoveries now too?

He made two nice plays, but several missed tackles and was just outran by Stidham a backup who's imploding.

Yeah, that's why I had the end note there as well. He hasn't caused any yet from what I remember but he's pretty damn good at securing them.

People kept saying that his pressures would eventually turn into sacks and we are all starting to see the fruits of that. Love the progress he has shown.

Six sacks in 7 games. Plus he has a FR today. Either you are trolling like I said or you are allowing your bias to cloud your faulty judgment.

"I'll be happy to be wrong"

You've proven that was horseshit, because you'll never even admit that you were wrong unless he's in the HOF.

Chris Jones, you are not factoring in who he's lining up with. Karlaftis has had a ok game against the Raiders but don't get it confused he has had more negative plays to make this game "nuanced" or subjective.

Mahomes outran Crosby and he has been mostly absent this game and this is against two of the worst tackles in the league. Is he trash as well?
