Is Trey Hendrickson a lazy comparison?

Great. That's how I've been envisioning him while watching the highlights. Would love if he can match that or be even better.

I still think the closest comparison is Tamba Hali. Karlaftis is just a little better and will have better coaching than Hali had. Tim Krumrie ain’t walking through that door teaching slap fighting.
Very comparable, though. Not the longest arms. Not fast Hali 4.87 Karlaftis 4.75 Elite pressures, had to grow into a finisher. Hali was top 5 in pressures each year in years 2-4 but couldn’t crack around 8 sacks. Karlaftis has the third highest pressure rate of the last 3 years, but topped out at 7.5 sacks. High motor. Both play to the whistle every down. Non stop. Naturally strong and understands leverage Hali 6’3” 275 at combine Karlaftis 6’4” 266 at combine Both were born in other countries and have a chip on their shoulder. Karlaftis is basically Tamba Hali X1.1 I bet he has a similar career trajectory, too. Likely even accelerated because of better tools and coaching for Karlaftis. Karlaftis (if he stays healthy) will probably get 7-9 sacks as a rookie this year. Tamba had 8 as a rookie. I bet it takes Karlaftis 2 years before he breaks out with 11-13 sacks, but it’s only a matter of time till he does. He’s going to build his strength and pass rush moves. That breakout may even come sooner. |

Has anyone told George and Leo about 98.9 the Rock? They’re gonna love Johnny Dare.

Big George is going to be in the HoF one day and Jared Allen is going to be at the ceremony to take pictures with him. Maybe even do a TikTok with Jackson Mahomes just for the heck of it. |
