The NFL Draft is the one event each year that introduces fans to the next influx of talent coming from the college ranks to the pros. To get there, we have several all-star events and the Scouting Combine. The combine is where players get examined by doctors and measured to find out if they meet the NFL's thresholds and expectations.
For LSU's Will Campbell, his arm measurements had him among the smallest in the history of the NFL Combine for an offensive tackle. While he may play tackle, regardless of his arm measurements, some folks expected him to move into a guard role.
Luckily for Campbell, NFL Scouts at the LSU Pro Day re-measured his arms, and they now meet the league's requirements for offensive tackles.
Campbell has been mocked up and down the first round by analysts. If he were there at 24 for the Vikings, Campbell could be an extreme value for the team and bring a unique battle to the interior line of the Vikings roster with the likes of Blake Brandel.
