QBs are supposed to be a certain height... well, except for the short guys who turn into HOFers

WRs are supposed to meet a certain threshold in 3-cone times or else they can't get open in the NFL... except for the ones who take a giant piss on that shit

LBs need to be a certain weight. RBs need to run a certain 40 time. The list goes on and on.

That doesn't mean you draft a ****ing grandma in a wheelchair, but it also doesn't mean you dismiss a player as ****ing broken if they're not within the commonly accepted norm for body or type of athlete. You take those red flags and investigate them... find out why they were successful and whether those traits are things you can still work with.

The Chiefs didn't ignore the length of his arms. They have his measurements. People are acting like this shit is something they didn't know about.

Watched a couple of those highlights and it sure seemed like when he was in the game they were purposely scheming him out on offense as much as possible. Rolling the other direction, a few chips, and some incredibly quick passes.

And they decided that his actual football playing ability outweighed how long his ****ing arms are.

Well thank **** that the Ohio State isn’t in the AFC West.

This, if McDuffie was an inch taller and the Greek Freak (can't spell his name yet) had slightly longer arms they probably both go in the top 10...

I saw that in the Ohio State film for sure. He's the only one they really had to scheme for.

This guy is your motor guy that brings it every play, he isn't gonna lead the league in sacks. But guys like him do matter.

The ball was being released by Ohio State in about 2 secs most snaps...

The only game he had 0 sacks or pressures and still had a tackle for loss. How about the Iowa game with 10+ pressures or just about any other game of his career?

Did you write off Jameson Williams so quickly when he only caught 2 balls against Auburn or Mississippi St? My guess is you wanted to trade up for him.

I understand. But, he isn't a bendy type of rusher who is going to make moves to elude an NFL tackle.

He isn't an explosive athlete who is going to blow by an NFL tackle.

If he can't get his hands on the tackle in order to bull rush, how is he going to beat NFL tackles?

I sincerely hope that I am an idiot, and GK tears up the league, and proves to be the edge rusher we need.

Will he win sometimes? Yes. But, even with his PFF grade, or how other experts graded him, he was still there at 30 for a reason.

So..

Arm lengths
Karlaftis 32 5/8
Hutchinson 32 1/8

So does Hutchinson also suck with his midget arms?
