GREEN BAY, Wis. ― On April 16, eight days before the start of the NFL Draft, Louisiana State offensive linemen Will Campbell and Miles Frazier prepared for a private workout on campus with the Patriots. They had heard that coach Mike Vrabel, a 14-year NFL linebacker, still liked to get in the mix and grapple with players. They prepared accordingly.

Though he's Louisiana native, Will Campbell's professional sights had been set on Foxborough for quite some time.

Mike Vrabel mapped out what the Patriots valued when they made the call to take Will Campbell with the No. 4 pick.
