Overview
Campbell was a very productive, three-year starter for the Gophers. He is a tough, hardnosed linebacker with good instincts and is at his best when attacking the line of scrimmage as a run stopper. He has decent range inside-out to the ball but doesn't have great speed or quickness when in pursuit. He is excellent at maintaining leverage with proper angles and body positioning. He understands run fits and rarely is out of position between the tackles. He is a solid tackler as he keeps good balance and wraps up well on contact. He lacks great lateral quickness and agility in coverage and may be a liability in this phase of the game at the next level. Campbell is a good college football player who doesn't appear to have the raw talent to be effective at the next level and will likely contribute as a backup.
Analysis
Weaknesses
Does not have the speed to be a sideline-to-sideline player. Stands up too tall at times and can be driven back. Has average athletic ability, which limits his ability to stick with backs and tight ends in man coverage. A bit stiff in the hips and struggles to make tackles in space.

| Grade | Title | Draft (Round) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 96-100 | Future Hall of Famer | Top Pick | A once-in-a-generation type prospect who could change how his position is played |
| 85-95 | Immediate Starter | 1st | An impact player with the ability/intangibles to become a Pro Bowl player. Expect to start immediately except in a unique situation (i.e. behind a veteran starter). |
| 70-84 | Eventual Starter | 2nd-3rd | A quality player who will contribute to the team early on and is expected to develop into a starter. A reliable player who brings value to the position. |
| 50-69 | Draftable Player | 4th-7th | A prospect with the ability to make team as a backup/role player. Needs to be a special teams contributor at applicable positions. Players in the high range of this category might have long-term potential. |
| 20-49 | Free Agent | UDFA | A player with solid measurables, intangibles, college achievements, or a developing skill that warrants an opportunity in an NFL camp. In the right situation, he could earn a place on a 53-man roster, but most likely will be a practice squad player or a camp body. |
