# Charlie Campbell: Reviewing Indiana-Michigan, Campbell projects Indiana receiver Charlie Becker as a top-half-of-the-first-round pick and teammate Nick Marsh as a possible opening-night (first-round) selection, while Michigan cornerback Zeke Berry grades as an early-rounder who could draw late first-round consideration but should go no later than the second round. **Claimed:** Oct 24, 2026 **Pundit:** Charlie Campbell — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/charlie-campbell **Outlet:** Walter Football — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/walter-football **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://walterfootball.com/2027-nfl-draft-college-game-recaps-week-8.php 4 checkable claims — 4 mock draft picks — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > Becker looks like a pick for the top half of the first round; Marsh could also go on opening night, and Berry is an early-rounder. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Charlie Becker to be picked “top half of the first round” (picks 1–32)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Charlie Becker - Verdict: not settled yet - **Zeke Berry to be picked “late first-round consideration and looks like a second-round pick at the lowest” (picks 1–64)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Zeke Berry - Verdict: not settled yet - **Zeke Berry to be picked “an early-rounder”** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Zeke Berry - Verdict: not settled yet - **Nick Nash to be picked “could also go on opening night”** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Nick Nash - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Charlie Becker — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/charlie-becker - Zeke Berry — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/zeke-berry - Nick Nash — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/nick-nash ## What others said about the same people - Kyle Crabbs on Nick Nash: Crabbs projects all seven rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft, starting with Cam Ward going No. 1 overall to Tennessee, Travis Hunter second to Cleveland and Abdul Carter third to the Giants. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/e8a40874-e85c-44ec-a4c8-b6f0edbd22d2 (scored 0) - John Middlekauff on Charlie Becker: Middlekauff previewed Week 11, projecting the Commanders to finish with six or seven wins and the Giants with eight or nine, naming four AFC teams as playoff locks, and picking the Chiefs, Texans, Steelers and 49ers to win their games.
