This guy started all 33 games at LT in college
Just like WC
Short arms just like WC
Similar size
Drafted by Titans in forst round at 11 to play LT
Guess what happened?
He could not cut it at LT and was moved to guard in first season

Same will happen with WC
Do not draft a guard with 4 th pick

The only thing I'll say is that Northwestern is not LSU. A lot of the players Campbell faced are headed to the NFL this weekend. The two are not the same.

Not identical but have striking similarities

Not at all. Playing in the SEC is a significant difference. You're equating his draft spot against the fact that Campbell is slated to go there this year. I'm not saying Campbell is going to be great, but I feel like he faced a lot more NFL-caliber talent to get to where he is. We still don't know if that's who they'll take, but if they do, it'll be because of what he put on film against those players.
 
Only player realistic to 4 I’d be pissed about is Jeanty. You don’t take a RB at 4 when you aren’t already a deep playoff contender.

Campbell's played three years at LSU. Some of the players he faced in the first two years have already reached the NFL. Would be interesting to see how they've done.

I don't think [short arms are] as problematic. It becomes problematic when they can't do the things you want them to do to overcome that particular limitation.

Not these days
Difference lately is Big Ten teams playing in NCAA Championship games while SEC teams clean out their lockers.
Three teams in the last 2 years, Mich, OSU, Oregon.
The 4th team, Washington, is now Big Ten

Bowl Game results this past season
Big 10 went 10-5 (4-1 vs SEC bowl teams)
SEC went 8-7

LOL, fair enough - can't argue with you there.

How many starts did Skowronski have at LT in the NFL?
What exactly were his stats at that position in the NFL?
How tall is he?
 
The arm length is not the same. Skironski's arm length was 32 1/4. Cambell's is between 32 5/8 and 33.

I edited in a few more cherry-picked stats (and ignored anything that may support your thesis )

Don't you get well and truly tired of being negative. Campbell has played three seasons at LT and better evaluators than you or I say his arm length is not a problem. You have no idea how he will turn out.
 
 
Nobody on the planet cared about wing span as a measure of a tackle’s viability until Campbell’s outlier measurement.

Sure there are similarities with skoronski. There are also just as many similarities to Rashawn slater.
