I think Campbell is as much edge rusher as stand up LB. I can’t imagine they trade up for a #2 MLB

This.

Fangio saw Baun moving from Edge to LB. He may see Campbell as a Edge.

Really surprised the Eagles

Traded up

Took a LB in the 1st

Has injury concerns

Didn’t have as a 30 visit

I can’t imagine Dean has any future here anymore and Trotter Jr likely not either

Baun has two years left here in all likelihood. Trotter has a chance to prove he’s worth being the LB2 by then.

Eh, so many of them look like that in Utah. Another cocky spoiled kid from Draper, UT like Zach Wilson. Hope he flops just as bad.

I feel awful for Nakobe though.

There is a chance Campbell moves to DE with Dean back maybe.

Can't wait to see the behind the scenes video showing Howie trying to move up several times.

He might

Yeah he played well but he can't stay healthy and he's actually entering yr 4 of his contract. No way they were paying him to stay

If I remember correctly, Von Miller was the SAM backer in Fangio’s defense in Denver

Wow tried to trade up 8-9 spots for the dude and he basically falls in your lap

When Baun’s contract is up then (theoretically) if jihad plays well then he’s getting paid. Sometime in the 2-3 years they’ll need to find a developmental linebacker

We got a top 20 player at 31. HOWIE SZN

On the Consensus Board, compiling over 106 Big Boards, he was #14

Party like it’s 1979

1979... I was in 5th grade. My teacher was the sister in law of Orioles catcher Rick Dempsey.

Did anyone think we would have a shot at Jihaad? SB and still land Jihaad. Amazing

The key is how they are going to use Campbell. He’s sort of analogous to last year’s DeJeane addition. A name everyone liked, big talent…but where and how do you plan to use him? As a rookie? Long term?

Is this because Nakobe may not be ready / so they won’t have to pay him? (Less exciting to look at it that way, but doesn’t make it a bad decision).

This edge rotation is really light. Will he get some looks there?

No press conference so far

Played better…coverage was still an issue for him. He really stood out downhill once he figured out how to tackle.

I think trotter plays this year if campbell needs surgery

Everyone so fast to label him an off ball LB….

He’s both. And that’s the point. PERFECT fit for Fangio and gives us a ton of options with roster construction

Nope, but I said I'd love him if they could get him.
