In terms of affecting the QB, Karlaftis' career trajectory is in the middle of Hali and Allen, leaning towards Allen.
Allen had 27.5 sacks after 3 seasons, while Hali had 19.5. Karlaftis has hit the QB a lot more than Hali as well, at 56 to 24. No stats on Allen in his first two years, but he had 15 in year 3, so it's likely somewhere around the same or even slightly less than George.
Hali didn't produce double-digit sacks until his fifth year in the league. If George can become a guy who gets 11+ sacks every season, which isn't asking for much of a jump, and play seven good seasons yet, he'll easily be over 100 sacks. The only thing George really falls behind in is tackles.
I cannot agree with any talk of him not being worth a second contract here.
