Hali was a good pick for the Chiefs.  Hali is a ball of energy that is always in attack mode, whether chasing a quarterback or blowing up a ballcarrier or blocker.  Hali always tackles through the ballcarrier and never takes a play off.  He has short arms though and can be engulfed by big tackles, but that’s nitpicking.

Hali played in 46 games for Penn State (34 starts) and compiled 179 tackles including 36 tackles for a loss.  Hali also had 14 sacks.  Hali is a little small at 6′2″ 270 pounds, but he’s fast as he runs a 4.7 40.

Hali’s entusiasm playing the game will probably rub off on his defensive teammates, and the Chiefs need some fire on that side of the ball.
