Chad Williams+FollowWill Big Willie’s Arms Hold Up at LT?Pats Nation, what do we think about Big Willie Campbell holding down the left tackle spot for Drake Maye? The front office made a bold move grabbing him at No. 4, but some analysts are raising eyebrows over his arm length. Most top tackles have longer reach—could this push him inside, or will his technique and power make up for it? Either way, the O-line should be way better than last year’s disaster. Let’s hear your takes! #Patriots #NFLDraft #WillCampbell #Sports00Share
Coach J +Follow🧠 Coach J’s Draft Room Vol.4｜Will Campbell: Not Flashy, Just FoundationalWill Campbell | New England Patriots | OT | LSU "You don’t build a house starting with the chandelier." 🔍 Coach’s Breakdown ✅ Strengths Powerful anchor with outstanding play strength Solid base, rarely overextends in the run game Reads leverage and adjusts angles well Durable and experienced—started from day one in the SEC 🚧 Areas to Watch Shorter arms than ideal for a prototypical NFL left tackle Some inconsistency when left alone on an island in pass pro Technique still needs refinement vs speed-to-power edge rushers 🗣️ Coach’s Corner Let me tell you something about the big fellas up front—they don’t win headlines, but they win games. Will Campbell isn’t the type of pick that gets fans racing to the team store, but he is the kind of player that lets your quarterback sleep at night. With Drake Maye looking like the real deal, New England made the smart move: protect the franchise. There’s noise about his arm length. I’ve been coaching long enough to tell you this—arm length doesn’t move a defender; leverage and timing do. And Will’s got both. He’s battle-tested in the SEC trenches, and he’s got that “set-it-and-forget-it” toughness coaches love. He may never be a highlight guy. But he’s going to be in the frame every time your QB gets up clean. 🎓 Coach J’s Grade: B Not elite in traits, but elite in mindset. He’ll stick. And he’ll matter. #NFLDraft2025 #WillCampbell #PatriotsFootball #CoachJ #OffensiveLineMatters #TrenchesWinGames #DraftRoomVol4 #ProtectTheFranchise #CoachJObservations20Share
glen25+FollowWill Pats Roll the Dice on Campbell at #4?With the draft just days away, Pats Nation is buzzing about who the Hoodie and Eliot Wolf will snag at No. 4. An anonymous NFC South scout told ESPN he sees the Patriots locking in Will Campbell—if both Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter are off the board. Campbell’s SEC pedigree and versatility (tackle or guard) could be just what Drake Maye needs up front, even if some folks worry about his arm length. Could this be the start of a new O-line era in Foxborough? #Patriots #NFLDraft #WillCampbell #PatsNation #Sports90Share
