The Chicago Bears have their eyes on Will Campbell, the powerful LSU offensive tackle with first-round buzz 🔥—but there’s one big question swirling around his draft stock: 👉 Is his arm length a dealbreaker? In this episode, we dig deep into the data. We broke down the arm length of every starting and backup offensive lineman in the NFL, and charted where each was drafted. Then, we matched those numbers up with the 2025 NFL Draft class to see where Campbell—and others—stack up 📏📊. You’ll find out: 🧠 How much arm length really matters for tackles in today’s NFL 📉 Where the cutoff seems to be for elite, mid-tier, and late-round OL 👀 Whether Will Campbell’s profile fits what Ryan Poles and the Bears have in mind. 🧩 What You’ll Learn: Is arm length overrated or a legit concern at tackle? How Will Campbell compares to past OT draft picks Who in the 2025 class does meet the typical NFL OT prototype Which tackles might rise—or fall—because of this one trait 🎧 Hit play and get the facts—because when the Bears are on the clock, the little things matter. #BearDown 🐻⬇️ #ChicagoBears #WillCampbell #NFLDraft2025 #OffensiveLine #ArmLength #DraftMetrics #BearsOL #DraftTalk #RyanPoles #LSUFootball #TrenchesMatter #OLBreakdown #scoutingreport 00:00 - Intro 02:50 - Tackle Arm Lengths 05:22 - Draft Rounds 08:55 - The Outliers 14:53 - 2025 Draft Class 23:58 - Outro

The rest of the NFC North is in trouble. 🐻 Bears fans, this could be the draft. 🧩 Key Highlights: First-round trade without missing out on elite talent Securing a trenches cornerstone early 🧱 Filling critical needs on both sides of the ball High-upside depth on Day 3 Building the foundation for sustained success 🎧 Hit play.

From 2nd-round edge threats with starting potential to late-round monsters who could thrive under Dennis Allen, we’re looking at guys who fit the culture, the scheme, and bring the juice this defense needs. 🔥 2nd-Round Targets Looking for instant contributors off the edge? These names could be gone early on Day 2 — and for good reason: Jack Sawyer (Ohio State): Power, polish, and Big Ten pedigree Nic Scourton (Texas A&M): Explosive first step with high-upside traits Landon Jackson (Arkansas): Freaky frame, growing skillset ⚔️ 3rd-Round Edge Fits Day 2 still offers plenty of bang for the Bears' buck: Jordan Burch (Oregon): Tools for days, just needs the right system Bradyn Swinson (LSU): Quick-twitch and versatile—could thrive in a rotation 💎 Day 3 Gems The board may be thinning, but the value’s still real. Keep an eye on these sleepers: Ashton Gillotte (Louisville): Underrated pass rush motor with production to back it up Oluwafemi Oladejo (UCLA): Hybrid EDGE/LB who brings physicality and burst 📢 Bears fans, this is your crash course in Day 2 & 3 dominance.
