That is the $64,000 question.
I think most of us who don't like him as an OT actually really like his projection as an OG.
I am working on a Campbell thread on Blue Cloud. I have 60 clips of him...
Feedback wise I worry if I post too few of them people will think I am cherry picking and if I post too many I will overwhelm folks. Trying to figure out the right balance.
My goal is to show you what reps I think actually translate best to OG and show you why I have some concerns about his technique and not just his length.
What do you think? 15-20 clips a good balance? More? Less?
Edit: the funny part is for all the consternation... I have a 7.75 on him which is pro bowl traits but needs technical consistency and reps. Going from OT to OG is hard. So I liked Campbell quite a bit and thought he was a damn good prospect.
This is great! My advice is to just be honest about the potential critics and say you're trying not to cherry pick but also not overwhelm people with clips, and say that you worked hard to pick representative clips that illustrate traits that show up a lot on film both good and bad. I'd aim for closer to 10, not that I really know what I'm talking about?
100%.
15 clips max. Anything more than that, it’s overwhelming.
and if you preface it with you’re not cherry picking (maybe include 3 clips that are bad?), I think that’s perfect

As promised a thread on Will Campbell. It is 14 video clips long. Each clip is 6-7 seconds or something close to that. I show you a representative sample of his strengths, weaknesses, and traits and why I think those translate best at OG vs OT. I also show you why I have some concerns with him at OT.
I know this is such a cliche draft dude thing to say but damnit it's freaking true: tape don't lie.
Edit: this summarizes it - there are other strengths and weaknesses I didn't cover but this is the gist of it.

Could put this in multiple threads, but found it kind of funny that Jordan Reid's way too early 2025 mock draft - from last May - had Campbell to the Pats at 3.

Thanks for posting. I just watched all of them.
Does CFB count sacks differently than the NFL? I thought in the NFL a strip sack counts as a sack.
I think because the ball came out before he was down it doesn't count as a sack. Daniels went to the medical tent but was ok.
@CFB_Rules paging your expertise please.
Honestly? I am shitty when it comes to remembering rules. Sorry. Rules and names. Hoping others can bail me/us out of this one.
Good stuff. (though I have no idea what conclusion to draw from it. That isn't your fault though.)
I have no idea, the difference between a “sack” and a “tackle” doesn’t really exist from a rules perspective. That’s more a stats/gambling thing.
