By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Dante Fowler Jr., OLB, Florida – Round 1 Fowler’s rookie season was lost to a torn ACL, but that injury should not prevent him from becoming a very good starter in the NFL. A number of teams believed that Fowler was the best defensive prospect in the 2015…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Denzel Perryman, LB, Miami – Round 2 Many projections didn’t have Perryman getting to the Chargers’ second-round pick, and San Diego was fortunate to land him in the back half of Round 2. The Chargers needed to bolster the interior of their linebackers, and Perryman should form a…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Clive Walford, TE, Miami – Round 3 Last season, Raiders young tight end Mychal Rivera came on strong late in the season as a receiving weapon for rookie quarterback Derek Carr, so it was somewhat surprising that Oakland used its third-round pick on Walford. The reason that Walford…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Jamon Brown, G, Louisville – Round 3 Todd Gurley was really the only draft pick of the Rams who I really liked, but I have to pick a player for this spot. Of the franchise’s other picks, I feel the best about Brown turning into a quality starter…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Devin Smith, WR, Ohio State – Round 2 The Jets needed to get some receiver help this offseason, and they did it by trading for Brandon Marshall and using a second-round pick to select Smith. New York has Eric Decker returning, and this trio could be a very…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Tre Jackson, G, Florida – Round 4 I had Jackson mocked to the Patriots for a long time because they had showed a lot of interest in him, plus he was a great fit for them. Sources said that while Jackson isn’t flashy, you know what you are…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Laken Tomlinson, G, Duke – Round 1 The Lions surprised many when they took Tomlinson in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft. Most teams had him graded for the second day, so Tomlinson going on Day 1 was a bit of a reach. Detroit had a…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Damarious Randall, S/CB, Arizona State – Round 1 The Packers made one of the surprise picks of the first round when they selected a safety for the second-straight year instead of their choice of any inside linebacker. Green Bay has been weak in the middle and yet felt…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Shaq Thompson, OLB, Washington – Round 1 If Thompson were going to any team but Carolina, there is a good chance he would be my pick for Most Likely to Bust. Thompson is very raw after splitting time at running back and linebacker in college. He also never…

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell Solid Starter Maxx Williams, TE, Minnesota – Round 2 The Ravens entered the 2015 NFL Draft with a huge hole at the tight end position, and they needed a receiving threat for Marc Trestman’s offense. Baltimore was very fortunate to land Williams in the second round, and the team’s trade…
