Interesting Video I saw on another forum. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wH2-cJJR-rQ]YouTube - Maryland OT Bruce Campbell Official Highlights vs. Cal[/ame] Very good with very bad You can see how athletic he is and use it to keep in front of his man But you can also see him getting owned badly on a couple play's Doesnt sell me on this guy, at least as an "elite" prospect. But he does look like like the type that if he latch's on to the right team with the right OL coach he could be special
He's a great pass blocker, but he has always been inconsistent against the run. He was beat on one passing play there by Alualu who isn't such a bad prospect himself. I think he lacks aggressiveness and a mean streak in the run game. With better coaching in the NFL he will continue to improve as an elite pass blocker and maybe even develop the run-blocking mindset.
I know what you mean. He will be amazing on screens/pulls because of his speed, and couple this with his natural feet, hands and strength and he could be a perennial pro bowler if given the right coaching (Alex Gibbs for example *hint hint*
hes built like vernon davsi but is 65 pounds heavier...really amazing that hes 315 pounds and runs a 4.85
I think he's got all the raw natural ability he just needs better coaching. I'm sure he'll be able to catch on and become a cornerstone of a franchise for the next decade+.
I think it depends on Sam Bradford. If his shoulder isn't satisfactory I think the top teams pass on him and Campbell gets bumped up into the top 6 (eg WAS - Okung, KC/SEA - Campbell) with Bradford falling to 7.
I want no part of this guy. He's only started 17 games and was just ok in those. He's a physical specimen but is going to be a project. We need a tackle that can start on the left side day 1.
IF he makes it down to the Raiders, I don't doubt that. However, I don't think he will, and Al Davis hasn't yet got the hang of trading up in his 4000 year lifetime.
