DRAFT Welcome to New England, LSU OT Will Campbell

[sportnik]

You’d make a great Nazi, Keyser.

My son makes these videos
He just put this together on Campbell

Even your genius son, can’t find anything that would justify taking a Guard at 4

I love this kid already.

Sow and Robinson spent all of last year vying for the position of worst guard in the NFL. Strange has been average at best so far and his career and may end up at center long term.

It doesn't matter.

You've sunk a 1st and two fourths already at the position. Now you've also tossed in the 4th pick in the entire draft. Meanwhile, you don't have a tackle and the rest of your team is suffering because you keep drafting guards.

In other words, you're spinning your wheels.

If there's a high possibility of this even happening, I would already say this is a bad pick.

The only reason the Patriots took the guy is that they have very high confidence he'll be playing LT.

Personally, I also believe the guy we took in the 60s last year is ticketed for guard.

I mean, look at this: Strange, Sow, Robinson, Andrews, Wallace, Campbell -- just incredible amount of resources! Not to even mention Mafi and Hines.

In all honestly I’m curious what the haters of this pick thought was a better option? Maybe you like Membou better, ok it’s a fair argument. But outside of that and other “well if we trade these four assets and get back ten assets in return…” what was the clearly better option ?

The next two picks, Graham and Jeanty, seem like better bets to be elite players.

And I hope Ian and every other mindless pajama wearing fanboy enjoys your *********** tonight, because the fall out from this pick is going to be painful.

The Pats won’t be sniffing the playoffs anytime soon, throwing away premium draft picks on good guys that can’t play.

You are a child.

Why are you so angry?

 

[BennyBledsoe]

Okay, but who you got blocking for Jeanty? And how is the offense going to score enough points to take advantage of a pass rusher if the QB's running for his life most of the time?

 

[Pape]

Why are you so angry?

hes not angry, he's an idiot

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

Will Campbell pick is as bland tasting as my ****.

You must have a 33 inch neck lol

LT has been a nightmare for this team for 5 years.
Solidifying such an important position is a cornerstone of being a winner.

1st team all American 3 time all sec consensus top 5 pick, 2 sacks in 989 pass blocks but he can’t play.
You should find a hobby you know more about. You are wasting your time with football.

The world isn’t ending after this one upcoming season. These guys are signing 4 year deals with an option for a 5th. The entire roster around whoever we took at #4 is going to change. Our currently weak OL would be a massive concern for Jeanty’s rookie year production. But the expectation would be that toy address the OL over his time here. OL is more important, but you have to fill holes from the players available to you and taking Jeanty over Campbell would have just been playing the cards you’re dealt if you think he’s a special talent but Campbell isn’t.

A LT who allows 2 sacks in 989 pass blocks is a pretty special talent
Did you not watch the patriots last year?
Blocking is more important than running back

 

[JR52]

I honestly wonder if some of you even watched the games last year.

Wow, you’re not only an idiot but extremely flexible.
