In the 2025 NFL draft, the New England Patriots selected offensive tackle Will Campbell from LSU with the fourth overall pick. This decision comes as part of the team's strategy to bolster their offensive line, which previously struggled in performance metrics. Campbell, recognized for his exceptional skill set and leadership qualities during his collegiate career, started all games for LSU and received numerous accolades. His selection aims to support quarterback Drake Maye's development by improving protection, addressing the Patriots' critical need on the left side of the line.
Keeping Drake Maye's development on course goes hand in hand with keeping him upright. The offensive line ranked last in pass and run block win rates.
Campbell, who turned 21 in January, enrolled early and earned a spot on the Freshman All-American roster. He started all 38 games for LSU.
