Iowa Hawkeyes' Tackling Machine and Future NFL Pass-Rush Star
Aaron Kampman dominated as a defensive lineman for the Iowa Hawkeyes, showcasing relentless intensity and setting school records with 447 career tackles, 188 in a single season, and 26 in a game during high school, traits that carried over to college where his non-stop motor and leadership as team captain made him a disruptive force. His physicality and football IQ propelled him to a fifth-round NFL draft pick by the Packers in 2002, later earning two Pro Bowls and Packers Hall of Fame induction—ideal for teams needing a high-effort DL who elevates the front seven.
