#Chiefs rookie DE George Karlaftis says he's gone through some changes since his time at Purdue: "I lost about 10-15 pounds during the pre-draft process, worked a lot on my strength, mobility, speed. Just transitioned into becoming a pro."

Yeah, I think I mentioned that in here somewhere when someone said "he should get on an NFL strength program and add 10 lbs..."

No way - he absolutely looked his best in 2019 and playing at 260ish could REALLY make him dynamic. I think that is an excellent development.

I like what he did last year, don't get me wrong. But that would've left in in Tweener territory, IMO. He still wouldn't have been powerful enough to maul NFL tackles and he wouldn't have the bend required to finish some of these rushes off.

A little leaner shouldn't cost him functional strength but may give him just enough burst and agility to help significantly w/ his pass rush.

EDIT:

Yeah - here it is:

This is absolutely a good thing, IMO.
