His highlight vids are intriguing, plays all over the line.

Shades of, dare I say it, a mini Howie Long in terms of strength & versatility.

Can't pretend to have watched any Iowa games - anyone know anything about this guy?

I’ve been re-watching Iowa games because I really want the Campbell kid at LB.

The DE is super young and a high motor,strong kid.He has been rising up mocks a lot lately.

He was sophomore in '22. Could be a moster in a couple of years.

Yeah, agreed.

Not sold on Anderson or Tyree Wilson (looks like Cle to me), but this kid..

Hmmmmmmm

Not a prediction on his NFL career, buy he s very much like both Watt brothers on defense coming out. Relatively in experienced but a physical freak and a problem. He is on the list of physical player I like for the Raiders. Here are a few more:

OT Dawand Jones
LB Noah Sewell
DE/DT Tui Tuipulotu
NT Siaki Ika
CB Julius Brents
DE Tyree Wilson
OT O'Cyrus Torrence
OLB Brenton Cox
OT Darnell Wright

Love him as a trade back target, or trade up in round 2. Reminds me of Crosby with his effort level, but actually looks a little stronger and more athletic.

My thoughts exactly, trade back pick up an additional 2nd. We have so many holes and outside of Carter and maybe Murphy (both of whom will likely be gone at 7) I'm struggling to see any real difference makers at 7, but later 1st/2nd has some really intriguing prospects, same for Witherspoon.

Of course the issue is if we don't like the spot at 7, who's gonna trade up for it?, unless one of the overhyped QB;s fall

Yeah some really interesting guys. I'd add Andre Carter as well.

I've been saying for weeks, QB or trade down

I would totally be ok with trading back and selecting Van Ness.
Then grab a couple big DT’s later on. Jerrod Clark

That's my thought. If nobody stands out at 7 why would someone trade up to that spot. Someone always falls though and it might be someone we don't need but someone else does. We can always hope

The notion of trading back is great,but in reality it’s just not that easy.
If we don’t trade up or for Rodgers..the QBs will probably be gone and we will be picking 7

I think he goes top 15 to be honest.
