The New England Patriots' decision to draft Will Campbell from LSU as the fourth overall pick stirs a mix of excitement and skepticism. On one hand, Campbell fills the glaring void at the left tackle position, a critical need for the team amidst a series of strategic offseason signings. With the Patriots bringing in players like Milton Williams and Morgan Moses, Campbell's selection seems poised to complete a significant overhaul of the offensive line.

However, concerns arise from Campbell's measurables, particularly his arm length, prompting questions about his potential to succeed in a left tackle role. Historically, players with similar measurements have struggled to make an impact at that position in the NFL. Despite this, his collegiate performance as a standout blindside protector and his ability to adapt to a guard position provide a safety net for the Patriots. While Campbell's future as a left tackle remains uncertain, his versatility suggests that he can contribute effectively to the team's offensive line.
