The Philadelphia Eagles swapped late first-round picks with the Kansas City Chiefs and selected Alabama linebacker Jihaad Campbell with the No. 31 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. If not for shoulder injuries -- he had surgery to fix a torn labrum in March -- Campbell might have been a top-15 pick in this year's draft. The 21-year-old 6-foot-3, 235-pounder was still a first-team All-SEC selection in 2024 after he led the Crimson Tide with 117 tackles (11.5 for loss) and five sacks. He was also tied for the team lead with two forced fumbles and started all 13 games. Campbell is expected to be ready to roll for training camp this summer, at which point the Eagles will try to figure out where he'll fit best in their already strong defense. He has elite traits and physical talent and could be best utilized as a 3-4 rush linebacker.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
