Charlie Campbell· Aug 20, 2026
Campbell says South Carolina QB LaNorris Sellers enters 2026 with an early-round skill set for the 2027 NFL Draft, but conditions a first-round selection on him improving his accuracy and consistency as a pocket passer.
“Entering the 2026 season, Sellers has an early-round skill set, but he has to play up to it and show improvement and more consistency to be a first-round pick.”
