a look at Bruce Campbell....beast

Recommended Posts

The only reason that he wasn't able to succeed in Oakland was because of a lack of directed attention from the coaching staff. Campbell requires special teaching. Something Oakland wasn't willing to provide. They drafted based on measurables, something that Al Davis' Raiders typically did. When he wasn't able to catch on quickly with the same level of coaching as everyone else...well too bad so sad.

This kid has a learning disability that stems from a brain disorder that required surgery at a young age. He has extreme difficulty conceptualizing. If you look at his draft analysis there were experts that claimed that he would never succeed because he was flat out stupid - he got like a 5 wonderlic. He can't read, or at least well, either.

He is a physical monster but he requires a teachers touch, which is hopefully something that this coaching staff is willing to give. He had specialty coaches dedicated just to him at Maryland. The potential is there for sure, it just has to be massaged out of him in the right way.

Wow I didn't know any of that, quite sad. Hopefully we can get him a good one on one tutor so we can pay him the big bucks to support himself after football.

I really hope we can make use of his talents. Bell is alright as a stop gap, but I really hope Campbell can become a starter and display the power and athleticism that he showed in college.

Who has panned out in Oakland?

Pretty sure that place has been a coaching and organizational nightmare for about a decade now.

Anyway I like that he plays until the whistle, looks alot like Amini's tape coming out of college. If he's in good shape he'll find a place here, maybe not as a starter but as a rotational guy. With the offense we run we need as many linemen that are fleet footed as possible.

I don't know...Oakland has won more games than Carolina over the last 3 yrs.

I don't think coaching has been anywhere near as bad as the FO has.

Hasn't he have enough time to be taught and develop?

The RT job is Bell's. People just dnt get it do they.

havent you had time to read these posts? Oakland drafted a tackle with a learning disability and moved him to guard......now we move him back to tackle and dumb down the play calling for example "blue 32 blue 32 we are running the ball to the right BRUCE HUT HUTT!!!!!!!"

CRA, I am honestly willing to send you money so that I never have to see your negative posts on here again.

What would it cost? Seriously I want you to get the fug out of here that badly.

Why don't you put your big girl panties on and deal with the fact everyone doesn't look at things the same.

Everything doesn't need to be spun to favor Carolina.

Oakland's offense has been better lately....injuries and QB play have hurt them. All I did was point out there coaching isn't as bad lately as their FO.

We got a talented athlete that doesn't look to be much of a football player to date.....me not drinking the kool-aid that our coaching staff is the difference between him being a bust and all pro at this point isn't negativity.

Makes me wonder how some get by in every day life when a poster on a message board with a different mindset is too much for you to take.

If you want to talk about positive things lets do it.....I have plenty of those.
