By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Scott Crichton, DE, Oregon State – Round 3 The Vikings let Jared Allen leave in free agency this offseason, and young veterans Everson Griffen and Brian Robison expected to pick up the slack in Allen’s stead. In the long term, the Vikings could have a strong rotation among…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Bishop Sankey, RB, Washington – Round 2 After releasing the declining Chris Johnson, the Titans had to come away from the 2014 NFL Draft with a starting running back. They were able to do so by making Bishop Sankey the first running back drafted in the 2014 NFL…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Khairi Fortt, LB, California – Round 4 The Saints were in the market for some young linebacker talent. Veteran David Hawthorne hasn’t played all that well for New Orleans over the past couple of seasons, while Curtis Lofton has some limitations to his game. The Saints drafted Kevin…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Jaquiski Tartt, S, Samford – Round 2 The 49ers had a lot of success on defense for a few years when they were starting two strong safeties with Dashon Goldson and Donte Whitner. Age and expensive contracts led to both leaving the franchise in free agency, but San…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Jeff Heuerman, TE, Ohio State – Round 3 If the Broncos hadn’t changed to Gary Kubiak’s offense I probably wouldn’t pick Heuerman to become a solid starter. He isn’t an uber-athletic or fast receiving tight end like what Denver lost wit Julius Thomas. However in Kubiak’s offense, I…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Ali Marpet, C, Hobart – Round 2 The Bucs felt so strongly about the Division III product Marpet that they traded back into the second round from the third round in order to make sure they acquired him. After taking Jameis Winston in the first round, it makes…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter John Miller, G, Louisville – Round 3 The Bills needed to acquire some guard help this offseason and were desperate enough to bring in Richie Incognito. Even with Incognito projected to play left guard, Buffalo had a hole at right guard, so the team moved to address the…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Paul Dawson, LB, TCU – Round 3 The 6-foot, 235-pounder Dawson was very much a love-or-hate prospect in the 2015 NFL Draft. Some teams had a second-round grade on him. Others had him in the third round. Some sources said they had him in the fourth round, while…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Danny Shelton, DT, Washington – Round 1 In the 2015 NFL Draft, Shelton was one of the safest picks. The 6-foot-2, 339-pounder is a mauler at the point of attack and is nearly impossible to move in the ground game. The Browns had the worst running defense in…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Eddie Goldman, DT, Florida State – Round 2 Heading into the 2015 NFL Draft, most of the projections had Goldman going in the first round. The 6-foot-4, 336-pounder could play a variety of positions on the defensive line and looks like a future starter in a 4-3 or…
