Charlie CampbellSep 26, 2026
Reviewing Week 4 college games, Campbell projected a range of 2027 NFL Draft outcomes: Dante Moore as a likely first-rounder if healthy, Jayden Maiava as a backup-caliber NFL player, Oregon's defensive linemen as second- or third-rounders, and first-round grades for Dylan Stewart and Colin Simmons, with Simmons potentially a top-10 pick.

What Charlie Campbell said
This tape could help Simmons to be a pick in the top-10 next April and he looks like a top-20 pick at worst.

How each call scored
15 checkable claims — 13 mock draft picks and 2 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 15 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.
