That's what I was thinking as well. Looks like he has the frame and flexibility to add a bit and not lose the speed. I really like the potential here. He seems to have good quick vision in his highlights, and if that can carry over and improve against NFL talent, he could be fun to watch..

I agree. He's only 21. He may have the potential to add 15 more pounds of muscle for all we know.

He has really good technique and moves for a college guy, there's polish to his game. There's video of him grabbing a tackles wrists and throwing them in sprint, that's high level stuff.

What's wild is that he's only played football for six years and still has a ton to learn despite showcasing a variety of different techniques (even if he does rely on some more than others too often).

Disruptor.

Which is even more impressive considering that he hasn’t been playing football all that long. Think he’s going to be very productive here.

I said watch the tape, not compare numbers.

Do you really think Karlaftis was talented enough to be the #2 pick? Do you really think Hutchinson should have lasted until pick #30?

You brought up explosion.

I showed you how their they tested in that area.

Nobody is saying that Karlaftis is Hutchinson.

Oooo do tell. Was there a bet that took place? Tell us!

First page of this thread filled with experienced GMs. Lol. He’s a bust apparently according to them.

Ok, but speed isn't necessarily explosion.

Tyreek first 2 steps are way better than Hardman's first 2 steps, yet they have very similar 40 yard dash times. Tyreek is explosive and Hardman isn't.

Compared to Karlaftis, Hutchinson is explosive.

Its the old eye test.

Also, this is not Karlaftis related, but can you please tell me what the status of Joshua Kaindoh and Cornell Powell is?

Are they likely cuts, or just special teams guys? I know that they were not high draft picks, but it seems like they have been forgotten.

Take it with a grain of salt because it’s PFF but they called Karlaftis the steal of the first round.

McDuffie is a B+. We will need him in this conference.

Karloftis is a D+. Not athletic enough, little upside. High JAG potential.

Where are you getting that he's not athletic enough? Serious question.
