The Official 2010 NFL Draft Thread: Rounds 2-3

[skinsy]

Campbell has no real character issues other than really struggling through school. His college coach said he had to go to study hall when the rest of the team was practicing in the spring.

We have Lendy Holmes so who needs Myron Rolle.

I hear people talking about his intelligence, but Campbell scored an 18 which was 4 higher than Mike Iupatu (14), and Sean Taylor who scored a 10. I don't think Sean was dumb, but he knew how to play football. Also Realize Campbell is 21 and his maturity level isn't there yet, so if we give the kid time he'll grow up kinda like ST.

I mean don't get me wrong ESPN has some smart guys on the set for their draft coverage but they keep interrupting each other which annoys the hell out of me. NFLN's guys wait for each other to finish a sentence. If I wanted to see people cut each other off I would watch The O'Reily Factor.

You hit the nail on the head. I think I switched over to ESPN twice during the entire draft coverage. The NFLN is quickly pulling ahead of ESPN when comes to NFL coverage.

None that I'm aware of.

My bad, dude. I can definitely see us taking a RB or a LB with 103.

Ha ha, thanks. I was hoping I wasn't the only one that felt that way about the networks.

I mean for anyone else watching you'd see stuff like ESPN not knowing who was picked until maybe seconds before. Other times they got guys they were lucky enough to have cameras on at home. Look, when JLC breaks picks before Schefter you know somethings wrong. Other times they would just keep on talking while players were getting picked, and this was in the first round.

Another thing I liked about NFLN though was they always had some noise in the background. ESPN kept cutting to interviews and studios where it's dead silent and their mic's didn't really pick up much background noise. I doubt thats a factor for 99.9% of people watching the draft but I thought it added a sense of being there. It also helped NFLN because the few times they did talk over picks early you could hear it announced in the background.

I've had my TV on for the entire draft and I think that I've spent maybe 20 minutes on ESPN. The other infinity billion hours have been on NFLN. And keep in mind I felt like at the start of the draft that I was going to spend most of my time on ESPN.

Forget it. After that Rolle buzzkill I can't even talk to you anymore. You know what....You're an in the box safety. Yeah I showed you.

If Trent Williams' athletic ability and quickness make him a good fit for our zone blocking scheme, then I would think that the same could be said for Bruce Campbell as a value pick at this point in the draft. I will be disappointed if he's still on the board at pick 103 and we pass on him.

[PHazard]

I wasnt on board with only talkin OT's in the draft like some were preaching. But that was before the possibility of Campbell falling to us in the 4th. If he's there when we go on the clock i dont see ANY reason to not pick him. How often can you lock up two tackle spots in one draft for the next 6 years? Campbell has bad tape out there but putting him on the right side will help him develop and he's still only 21. Gotta pull the trigger there

That's pretty funny considering I played SS in high school.

Ha ha, touché.

I just noticed Campbell ran the fastest 40 yard dash for an OL at the combine (4.85). He just missed the fastest time on the 20 yard shuffle (behind Trent Williams). He was pretty formidable on everything else, very athletic. We must not know something about this guy for him to be available this late (see Dez Bryant--irregular heartbeat)...

Obviously, Campbell has superior measurables, but a lot of scouts have been saying that his game film is absolutely terrible. I haven't watched Maryland enough to know how good of a player he is, so I have to take their word for it, but I wouldn't be opposed to taking him at 103 as a project with potential to boom or bust.

I've seen both. I've seen games where he's thrown people to the ground (legally mind you) and I've seen games where he looks like a fish out of water.
