He'll have to develop into one of those guys who just isn't very much fun to play against. Get heavy, violent hands that are constantly making OTs work through the whistle and by the 3rd/4th quarter they'll just get tired of it and start letting their technique slip. He's not a guy that's going to be shot out of a cannon on the first snap for a strip/sack. He's water carving out a rock. He's just going to have to keep coming and coming and coming until the other guys will just slowly slips away. |

He's not going to win with raw speed, but he can win with quickness and technique. His burst is pretty good (10 and 20-yard splits indicate that), and he does have quick hands. |

The fact that Joe Cullen is now involved with these DL selections just makes me feel so much better.
If Karlaftis got drafted by the Ravens and he was there, is there any doubt that he would at least be a good player? |

The forking maroons in this thread will go down in infamy worse than ones in the Super Bowl thread - who I also correctly called out during that game, saying that they would live forever in infamy.
This kid is going to be one of the best defensive players in Chiefs history. Not just good, not just an all-pro...one of the best defensive players in the history of the franchise. Book it. |

-Motor -Elite lateral agility -Work ethic That lateral agility of his is gonna come in handy. It’s right there with Aidan Hutchinson. It’s elite. And his work ethic is going to help him get better. He went from 25% body fat to 15% body fat while getting to 272 lbs. I listened to his interview and he said he knew strength wasn’t enough. He would lift and then go work on his hand work by practicing hand combat MMA moves. His floor is really high and I’m fine with that. We desperately needed a worker like him especially with Frank Clark’s problems. Love that he can play all over the line as well. Can easily see him lining up next to Chris Jones on some situations |
