The 50th pick in the 2008 NFL draft. After a roller-coaster 2008/9 rookie season, Campbell was promoted to the starting line-up after Antonio Smith left for the Texans and eight years of consistent excellence followed.
The two-time Pro Bowler and two-time All Pro has been the lynchpin of Arizona’s defensive line since his 2009 breakout season and has gone on to record 56.5 sacks (2nd all-time for the Cardinals) and 42 defended passes. All the more impressive coming from the 3-4 DE/DT spot.
If Campbell were to sign a new 2-3 contract his offseason it would be reasonable to think that he would overtake Freddie Joe Nunn’s Arizona sack record of 66.
