Nzoner's Game Room>*****The George Karlaftis Thread*****

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

Different position, but he has a Zack Thomas vibe to me.

Tripling down on what I said the day after we picked him.

Some guys you can just tell. Watched lots of his film, simulated him to us every time he was available in all the mock drafts I ran, but it wasn’t until I saw his interviews after we picked him that it hit me how good he was going to be.

Fan favorite by the end of this year.

Might sound crazy now, but I think Karlaftis will end up raising Chris Jones’s game to another level. Intra-team competition for the top alpha dog brings out the best in guys like Jones.

I like the idea that he didn't have a sack dance pre-planned. Stays humble and raise a fist or nothing after a sack. "This won't be the first time nor the last time".

I don't think showboating is in his nature...just doing a job.

I really don't give a fuck if he air humped as a tribute to.banging your mother as long as he hits a QB.

the knee jerk reaction to a TC photo is the dumbest post i've ever made on here

Here he uses the same move (with better technique) to pull former 2nd round pick Teven Jenkins off balance and more susceptible to his rip move. This results in him pressuring the QB in just under 2 seconds and actually hitting him in around 3. pic.twitter.com/RPMxEiLEcM

Finally, here’s my fav play so far. Expecting a chip from the TE GK slows down putting him in poor position with the LT. Using his knowledge that “1 arm is longer than 2” that so many DL coaches preach, he makes up the lost ground and BULLYS the LT back and crushes the pocket. pic.twitter.com/mjvV7LPtUP

Karlaftis is the guy who only throws 91 but is dedicated to the craft of being a Pitcher rather than a Thrower!!

Well, that's not true, but it's good to have you on Team GK, buddy. Missed you.

Man, he looked good. Much more bendy than I had expected.

He definitely is a little TJ Watt ish to me in terms of the situation he's been put in.

I still can’t believe we were able to sit tight and grab him at the end of the first

I think it just goes to show you how many teams base decisions on stats and not true scouting like we seem to do. That’s how we grab so many mid to late round gems. Hopefully guys like Pacheco and Williams will fall into this category, too.

So maybe some of you will... what's the phrase again.... oh, yeah, shut the fuck up... when you feel the need to judge a draft pick on draft night because HIS ARMS ARE TOO SHORT!!!!!!

I thought for sure the Patriots were taking him at 29.

They took a third round OL instead. I’m fairly confident their fans will be questioning that one for years.

Quit trying to evaluate talent and guessing what goes on behind the scenes and you will be ok.. Otherwise you just look like a dipshit.. I will give you respect for admitting you were wrong. Thumbs up.

Talk about unrealistic expectations.

Seriously, his sack was....whew. The way he dropped his hips and turned on a dime.

That really shows he can bend and move. Jesus. That was impressive. Yeah yeah, I know it wasn't around the edge bend but that's essentially the same thing. If he can do that what he showed, from the LDE spot....whew.
