Campbell is an ideal modern linebacker with a mix of size (6-foot-3, 235 pounds), speed and explosiveness. He played off-ball at Alabama but teams may use him more at edge in the NFL. In either case, he's a thumping hitter in run defense with coverage skills. — Ayrton Ostly
In Alabama's first season with Kane Wommack's "Swarm" defense, Jihaad Campbell shined with 117 tackles, eighth-most in Alabama history, and a team-high 11.5 tackles-for-loss. He served as a ferocious tackler, one that should translate well to the next level. — Colin Gay
