By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Trent Murphy, OLB, Stanford – Round 2 There were a lot of critics of the Murphy pick, but I think anyone who watched a lot of college football over the past two seasons wouldn’t be very negative regarding the selection. Murphy was a productive pass-rusher for Stanford and…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Calvin Pryor, S, Louisville – Round 1 There were a number of NFL teams that were surprised to see Pryor as the first safety drafted. Green Bay Packers safety HaHa Clinton-Dix was viewed as the top free safety to defend passing attacks, while Pryor was considered to be…

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…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter HaHa Clinton-Dix, S, Alabama – Round 1 The Packers had too many busted coverages in the middle of the field in 2013 and needed to get faster on the defensive side of the ball. Clinton-Dix is a perfect fit to come in and improve the team’s speed while…

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 Louis Nix, Notre Dame, DT – Round 3 Nix could get consideration for the boom pick as well. Over the past three seasons, he was been one of the best run-stuffing defensive tackles in college football. In 2012 Manti Te’o got all the attention, but Nix ate up…
