| I am also finally starting to come around to him. I'm not opposed to drafting him. If you asked me 3 weeks ago, I would have said hell no. If you can manage to ignore his combine, which I've somehow done, then you'd see he is a solid player, with freakish length than can really disrupt the pocket and get after the QB. How many balls does he bat down in that video? My only concern would be his strength and ability to match up against NFL OT's. He definitely needs some more upper body strength, especially if he's not going to be burning them off the edge. I say, give him a chance, lock him up in the weight room, and see what happens. He has a chance to be something special. Imagine if he bulks up a little. He could be the next "freak". I love his upside. The only problem is, he's a high-risk/high-reward type of guy, and we haven't done to well with those with our first pick. It's really boom-or-bust with him. It just doesn't get much worse than his combine performance, so it seems like the only place to go is up. I still don't like the level of talent that is there at 26, but I think we can make a trade out of the first round, maybe get another pick, (or Jason Taylor??), and still be able to get a guy like Campbell, or another of the available DE's. I'm really starting to believe we won't be having a pick in round 1. It makes too much sense to trade down. Just my opinion.

| Yesterday I would have said no. Today I would say I would not mind drafting him. He looks to be a very good athlete. I could care less about the combine. Those numbers are for fools. With the Jags being so quiet about this guy, he could be the target.

| | I'm starting to change my mind about Campbell too. One-two weeks ago I was completely against drafting him, but I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable with him and would be okay with picking him at 26. But something inside of me is still saying he is gonna disappoint at the next level. |

| | Impressive, Though I wish you could see these guys working against NFL caliber offensive lines. They should have full contact drills at the combine, that way these teams can really see what they are getting. If that would have happened two years ago, I bet MJD would have been the 2nd player taken and Reggie "don't hit me" Bush would have been a 2nd rounder. |
