Lang Campbell
Grade: 3.13
Position: QB Class: School: William & Mary Conference: Atlantic 10 Ht., Wt.: 6-2, 199 40 Time: 4.74
Grading System
BIO: Two-year starter and recipient of the 2004 Payton Award after passing numbers of 65.5 percent/3,988/30/5. All-Conference and All-America selection as a senior.
POSITIVES: Former walk-on who blossomed into one of the better small-school quarterbacks in the nation. Patient pocket passer who buys time for receivers and displays solid arm strength. Sets up with good footwork, accurate between the numbers, and leads receivers over the middle. Zips the intermediate throws and puts air under corner routes. Looks off the safety and possesses a quick release.
NEGATIVES: Directs throws and only average pass placement outside of twenty yards. Short arms his motion. Stares down primary targets from the get-go and not averse to throwing in a crowd.
ANALYSIS: A productive passer who has an outstanding touchdown-to-interception ratio, Campbell lacks the pure size and arm strength to be anything other than a practice squad player.
PROJECTION: Undrafted Free Agent

Update:
It appears the Cleveland Browns have signed 'Ol Lang's Arm. They did a great job of turning Mike Cook into a baptist preacher. So, things are looking good . . .
Tribe Pride can only get you so far...like to the Thomas and Mack Center, home of Arena Football's Las Vegas Gladiators.
And the Chiefs apparently want Jason White to hold some clipboards.
I'll have the Moons Over My Hammy...
MIAMI — Seven men of Middle Eastern descent have sued a South Florida Denny's restaurant franchisee and one of its managers for $28 million, saying they were kicked out because of their ancestry and compared to Osama Bin Laden.
The seven men say they went to Fernandez's restaurant in Florida City, on the southern tip of the Florida peninsula, about 2 a.m. Jan. 11, 2004. They say they were seated, given menus and received their drink orders. But an hour later, their food hadn't arrived. One of the men — Ehab Albaradi — approached Ascano and inquired about the group's order, the lawsuit says.
Ascano allegedly said: "Bin Laden is the manager of the kitchen" and "Bin Laden is in charge."
Albaradi and a second man, Usama El-A-Baidy, decided to speak to Ascano again about their order.
Angered, Ascano told the short order cooks in the kitchen to cancel the group's order, the suit claims.
El-A-Baidy then asked Ascano why he had used the name bin Laden.
"We don't serve bin Ladens here! You guys, out!" Ascano allegedly said.
A group of officers from the Miami-Dade County and Homestead police departments eating at the Denny's also told the seven men to leave and threatened to arrest them if they didn't, the lawsuit said. The officers have not been identified, Kauffman said.
Denny's restaurants have long been the targets of discrimination lawsuits across the country.
The 1,600-restaurant chain, which has annual sales that exceed $2 billion, settled a 1994 lawsuit for $54.4 million that accused the chain of asking blacks to prepay for meals. Since then, it has faced at least six more discrimination lawsuits filed by African-Americans and Hispanics and has been investigated in at least two cases involving discrimination against people of Middle Eastern descent.
Another Ozzie Guillen gem, from last year, taken out of Eric Neel's espn.com article:
"Remember their tiff last year, which began when Buck (Showalter) questioned Ozzie's knowledge of the rule book? Loved that. Ozzie finished Buck off with this: "When the best manager in the history of baseball talks about you, that means you're on somebody's mind. And when you're beating the crap out of the best manager in baseball, and we beat the [expletive] out of them, it makes me feel a lot better."
It's gonna be tough for Lang to make that team. They're definitely keeping Frye and Dilfer. They have Josh Harris as a project with Upppppside. And they picked up another UDFA QB this year that I can't remember.
