I mean I think in terms of the players that we actually take, we take pretty good players with the picks we have, we just at times dont focus on the right positions. Would he have had alot of input in what positions we have gone over the last few years?

Think of Campbell as sort of an offensive coordinator during the week. During the off-season, Campbell leads all the scouting efforts of college players, decides who will be interviewed at the combine (I think each team is limited to 50 players), what pro days to attend, ranking the different players under each position. Then on game day Cerrato, Zorn, and Snyder take over based largely on that info that Campbell leads the preparation of...now it's Allen instead of Cerrato of course.
