Jack Campbell lit up the testing from Day 1 and was by far the most impressive linebacker from the full unit.

He is the reigning Butkus Award winner for best linebacker in college football, and boy did he ever prove that coming out blazing in the combine.

He only ran a 4.65 40-yard dash, which was the low point of his day, but everything else was off the charts for his testing day.

He had a 37.5-inch vertical ranking him 3rd of all LBs, and a broad jump of 10 feet 8 inches ranking him 2nd of all LBs, a 3 cone drill time of 6.74 seconds, and a 20-yard shuttle time of 4.24 seconds which both ranked first amongst all LBs.

The issue Miami Dolphins fans might end up having with Jack Campbell is that he tested so well, he might’ve tested himself into a place where Miami will no longer be able to select him.

He has all the tape to prove that he is a phenomenal player, and now has the tests to prove he is an athletic freak who should go late 1st round or early 2nd round in the NFL Draft.

The Miami Dolphins faithful will be hoping and praying he falls far enough to grab him.
