If you have good footwork, you can get your arms where they need to be.
That’s my t-rex š„²
I hope we never have to have a discussion about arm length or wingspan ever again. Some people went absolutely mental with that.
Despite having short arms, Campbell RAS (Relative Athletic Score) was through the freaking roof. Arm length is included in RAS, so he is an extremely athletic 6ā6ā, 320 pound human. He is also a freaking dawg and has a fantastic work ethic and attitude. Starting at LT at LSU as a true freshman tells you everything you need to know about his football character.
After 4 games, that pick looks like a an absolute Home Run.
Keep ballinā Will!
Not that its bad but these charts are so silly. It doesnt count all the players in the league and also the Y axis is what matters where he’s middle of the pack, the X axis isnt really relevant since the best time to pressure is never.
You can pretty much make this plot charts say anything.
LT-Rex!
Imagine not giving your QB at least 3.5 seconds.
Where did all the smooth brains calling him a bust on week 1 and 2 go?
Keep the non believers in here so Will can FEED off them. Pancake city coming !! š„
Kidās the best tackle in the league *already!* š
i thought his arm length was fine but he had a small wing span.
Nice to see Morgan Moses in the upper right quad also
Hopefully he gets a solid reputation and they try him less.
where is trent brown?
Love that dude!
Listen, I didn’t bang the drum loudly for Will Campbell. My honest to God thought was “There’s no way a guy can play that well in SEC and just suck *but* the data around the arm length thing is there so..” But I was always surprised by the amount of people that thought he was gonna straight up suck. Maybe his build could prevent him from becoming elite (so far not the case lol) but nobody who watched the guy at LSU could think he was gonna suck.
All those analysts whining about his arm length need to eat a lot of crow.
Turns out everyone who assumed a kid who started at LT as a freshman in the SEC going against NFL caliber pass rushers, and only allowed 5 sacks his entire college career, would translate was right.
Get him a soup sponsorship asap
Time to put the whole arm length thing to bed. Itās an arbitrary measurable. Technique, footwork and strength are a whole hell of a lot more important than a half inch of arm length
Really sucks seeing the 49ers couldāve kept McGlinchey and more instead of paying Aiyuk. Fans were always really mixed on him but pretty clearly outperforming McKivitz here
