As a pure pass rusher i think he's going to be better than Karlaftis

For someone that missed everything before TC, he looked damn good.

He's Jason Taylor, Jared Allen, and Julius Peppers all wrapped up into one awesome football player who happens to play for my favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs.

I thought so too. All Karlaftis really had at this point was a bull rush and a shitty spin move. FAU has already shown quite a bit more in one game. Like you mentioned too, he was also pretty good with his hands

This. It looks like this kid can really play.

Man, who downvotes saying "he could be a better pass-rusher than Karlaftis" - it's not a dunk on Karlaftis you dimwit.

Tools were evident on Saturday. I think he's going to be a good player and a nice complement to the whole package.

By the end of the year, running out Anudike-Uzomah, Omenihu, Jones, and Karlaftis should be a pretty effective pass rush package.

It takes a special sort of dickweed to sleepwalk through 80% of a long-term contract.

Typically that doesn't surface until AFTER someone gets paid...

31. Felix Anudike-Uzomah, EDGE, Chiefs
Grade: A

FAU played fast and bendy as a rusher in his NFL preseason debut against the Saints. He had a win a pure outside rush, was quick to flash an inside counter to beat a blocker and demonstrated his patented hustle on his third pressure. It really looked like he was playing at Kansas State again.

Felix the Cat and Furious George are going to be a great duo.

Dunerdr 08-15-2023 11:53 AM
I ****ing love this god damn pick. We haven’t had a true two sided pass rush since Hali and Houston. Unless you count that half season where dee ford was ok.

Big Cat.

Box jumper never deserved that nickname.

AdolfOliverBush 08-15-2023 11:55 AM
I'm still hoping the nickname "F.U." catches on.

This quote from his nfl.com draft profile fits well:

“He doesn’t have that much starting experience but he’s already a way savvier rusher than he should be at this stage.” -- Regional scout for AFC team
I wasn't too deep INT he draft discussion this year but I do remember talking to staylor about the surprisingly fast below 7 second 3 cone this guy had at 255 lbs.

I think Karlaftis is pretty capped at what he can do. A lot of what he does is his work ethic, but FAU has him beat technically and athletically. It's not a slight on George either bc I think his work with Tamba will really help him this year.

Just seems weird that people think the DL is horrific without Jones. Yes Jones is elite but there is talent there around him.

One thing I've heard about Felix is that he has a high football IQ and understands how to formulate a pass rush plan. They says he's a guy that is going to interview well and win teams over that way.

That might be why he goes a little higher than expected.
