With that pick, they drafted offensive tackle Will Campbell, who was easily considered the top O-lineman in the draft class.<\/p><p>There were multiple problem areas for the Patriots last season, but one of the major concerns revolved around the offensive line.

They have gone year-to-year looking for an answer, but to no avail.&nbsp;<\/p><p>All that could change now, though, as rookie tackle Will Campbell has been lighting it up in training camp. NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports that Campbell has taken every rep at left tackle, and more importantly, the Patriots are happy with what they are seeing from the young 21-year-old.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Schultz also reported that <em>&ldquo;One team source raved his football IQ is through the roof&hellip; he processes so fast and already thinks like a veteran.

Sure, Campbell was not perfect, but as a rookie playing his first game at this level, he more than stood his ground. And in his 14 offensive snaps, he didn&rsquo;t allow a single quarterback pressure.<\/p><p>This comes as somewhat of a surprise to many, as there were plenty of doubts cast over Campbell&rsquo;s ability to succeed at the left tackle position, even though he had done a fine job throughout his college career.&nbsp;<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Are There Doubts Over Campbell Succeeding at Left Tackle?&nbsp;<\/h2><p>Campbell&rsquo;s ability as a football player, and that too as an offensive lineman, is not in question. But what was concerning prior to the draft was whether he could hold his own as the blindside protector.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The reason for this lies in his physical attributes. Despite standing at a height of 6 feet 6 inches, his arm length and wingspan are less than the average left tackle. Campbell&rsquo;s arm length is a little under 33 inches, which is not so bad, as the average in the league at the position is around 33.5 inches.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Will Campbell in his NFL debut:<br><br>&#128737;&#65039; 85.4 PFF grade<br>&#128737;&#65039; 8 pass-blocking snaps<br>&#128737;&#65039; 0 pressures allowed <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RA05Cz81Ca\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/RA05Cz81Ca<\/a><\/p>&mdash; PFF (@PFF) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PFF\/status\/1954543283587477614?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>August 10, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>However, his wingspan is considerably less at just 77 3\/8-inch, while the average in the league is 80.8 inches.

After starting my professional career as a French-to-English translator, working as a content writer is a new adventure for me. I started out in the sports media field for two main reasons: my love for sports in general, especially the NFL, NBA, and Tennis, as well as my passion for writing. The best part of this job is that I get to write a variety of pieces with the freedom to explore content from various angles. It also enables me to stay up to date with the sporting world, which otherwise can be difficult to do in the day-to-day grind. In a world full of chaos, sports unite and entertain like nothing else!","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/devakul"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/devavrat\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/621204"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=621204"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/621204\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":621246,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/621204\/revisions\/621246"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/621207"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=621204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=621204"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=621204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
