  • There has been a lot of change to the Detroit Lions defense in the 2024 offseason. Moves made on the defensive line and revamping the defensive backs for the second straight season. But not much has changed at linebacker. I believe that is because the Lions are thrilled with the chance they took at pick #18 in the 2023 NFL Draft.
    This video will profile Lions 2nd year linebacker from Iowa, Jack Campbell. We will discuss his past, present, and future with the Detroit Lions.
    Highlights:
    The History of Jack Campbell (1:47)
    The Ultimate Iowa kid (2:57)
    Lions take a chance at pick 18 (4:02)
    Alex Anzalone (6:07)
    2023 Campbell Stats (6:54)
    He's a MAN (7:12)

    Jack Campbell will probably end up going down as one of the most beloved Lions, he just has that mentality, work ethic and character.

    Been a die hard Lions/Hawkeye fan since the mid 80's and i swear i had this feeling right before the 18th pick that we were gonna draft an absolute pillar for our team and when they said captain jack i lost my friggin mind because i knew they did. No where to go but up for Jack! Holy moly it is a great time to be (an actual) lions fan!
    P.s. I wore my Lions starter jacket the day after their 16th loss. I bet there aren't a lot of people who can honestly say that.

      I was born n raised in Florida but moved up to Michigan for about 2 years n I’ve now been a lion for over 25 years and I’ve always wore my colors even when we were 0-16… So I can say I did the same but there weren’t many of us…

    The Mike backer is the hardest linebacker position to learn. You have to know where everybody is supposed to be not just where you are supposed to be. That takes a little time to learn. By recent accounts the coaching staff said he has. He will be better in year two. That will be amazing to see because he was pretty darn good in year one!

    For some reason ESPN has Anzalone at the Mike and Campbell at Will even though Alex took more snaps at Will and Campbell took more snaps at Mike last season lmao. Alex is actually an incredible Will LB so now that Jack is ready for the green dot it should free Alex up even more to fly around the field like a true Will.

    Lions just need to suck it up and play the kid at his natural MLB spot. He was big when he played it last year. I don't know if the staff wanted him to experience other positions so he could understand the defense better. Campbell has talked about how he got more comfortable with the front 7 last year, maybe there was intension in that decision

    • @johnnygazsports

      The defensive front will really dictate how the backend does. We have more talent for sure in the secondary but its always predicated on the pass rush. Hoping Reader and Davenport along with a healthy James Houston will be the answer.

    I can't believe that the Green Bay pundit is still saying that Brad made a mistake taking Gibbs and Campbell in the first round. He said Jahmyr is maybe in the top ten RB's in the league and he thinks that Campbell may become a halfway decent linebacker for the Lions this year. He also predicted that their lack of an elite edge to help out Hutch will leave them struggling to have a decent defense.

      Not sure it will break my heart if either of these guys play the Mike or Will position. AA is still listed as the Mike and JC the Will but I believe you my guy. My main point is you have a guy that is being groomed to take over the linebacking core (the green dot play caller) and take control of this defense. AA will gladly allow this to happen IMO.

James probably moves more towards the edge as well. Thank you for catching me on this before it went to far! Appreciate you.
