By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Marcus Smith, OLB, Louisville – Round 1 The Eagles’ draft overall was very solid. I liked what they did on the third day with the exception of Ed Reynolds. I think that Taylor Hart will turn into a solid starting five-technique and was a Day-3 steal. Many Philadelphia…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Weston Richburg, C, Colorado State – Round 2 The Giants had to improve their offensive line in the 2014 NFL Draft and were able to get the top draft’s top center in the second round. WalterFootball.com knew teams that were giving Richburg consideration late in the first round,…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M – Round 1 The Falcons had to upgrade their pass protection for Matt Ryan this offseason. Ryan was battered throughout 2013 as opponents had their way with Atlanta’s finesse offensive line. That led to an offseason mission to get bigger, more physical and…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Allen Robinson, WR, Penn State – Round 2 The Jaguars drafted two wide receivers in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft, because they need to stockpile talent for rookie quarterback Blake Bortles.

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Jon Halapio, G, Florida – Round 6 The Patriots have had some of the best guard play in the NFL over the last decade with a potential Hall of Famer in Logan Mankins. However before long, New England will have some new starters at guard. Mankins is 32…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh – Round 1 Many Rams fans will probably be upset that I don’t have Donald as the potential boom pick. I think he is going to be a good pro who is a plus starter, but I have some doubts about him being the…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Trai Turner, G, LSU – Round 3 Another guard? That was my thought when the Panthers selected Turner. Carolina was, and is, weak at offensive tackle and still needed more receiving talent, but Panthers general manager Dave Gettleman decided to go for another interior blocker. In the previous…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter C.J. Mosley, LB, Alabama – Round 1 Ozzie Newsome couldn’t help himself with this pick. He loves drafting linebackers and players from Alabama, so taking the Crimson Tide’s leader from the past three seasons was impossible for him to pass up. Baltimore had a need for a young…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Gabe Jackson, G, Oklahoma – Round 3 The Raiders needed a starting guard from the 2014 NFL Draft and were able to land their top-rated guard in the third round. Jackson was in consideration for Oakland’s second-round pick, and the team was fortunate to land him a round…
