Campbell has been playing in the CFL for the past four years, where he has scored three defensive touchdowns. Overall, he has 62 tackles, including nine on special teams, four interceptions and two forced fumbles.
Tapper was a decent edge defender at Oklahoma where he posted 15.5 sacks over the course of three years as a starter. He was eventually drafted in the fourth round in 2016, but his first two seasons were mostly spent on injured reserve and he was out of the league this season having been released in preseason. He has three tackles and one sack in two career appearances.
We'll scout all the futures signings in more depth over the course of the offseason.
