He only began putting things together towards the end of this last year. The question is whether he has the mental aspect to be the player that the physical skills show he could be.

The question is whether he has the mental aspect to be the player that the physical skills show he could be. This. And i think potentially another part of him "slipping" a bit to us, is that because he's so relatively inexperienced/raw at the position, a lot of teams were probably more hesitant on his ability to step in to a big role from Day 1. When it comes to 1st round picks, most teams are looking at these guys to step in immediately as starters and hopefully impact players. With Bryan, that might well not be the case. We have the DLine to "insulate" and let him ease in with more of a rotational role to start with. Can take a little bit of a "jar on the shelf" approach if we have to. A lot of teams don't have that luxury. Whereas, if you're say...a team looking at him as a prospective 3-4 base end, i think you're going to have some real concerns about his raw skillset holding up vs the run in particular. From the beginning of the season at least. Here, we can basically just run him in to situations where he can do what he's already good at, as a penetrating disruptive presence vs obvious passing situations. While he watches up close and learns every day how guys like Calais and Malik handle that stuff. In short: The downside is that we may not be getting a fully polished instant "starter" out of our 1st round pick. Which not every team would be as keen to accept.

Chargers coveted Bryan and we apparently were obviously going DL in NFL circles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinderFournette Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 i wonder if the team is gonna use him ala Campbell/Jackson or More like a potential Dareus Replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you use him like Dareus? 3T/5T is pretty obvious for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably the element he's least prepared to succeed in. Don't think he's really built for it either. 36 minutes ago, JaguarCrazy2832 said: Love these highlights but it just seems too good to be true I mean, it's the same with Chark and whoever else. Anyone really. The "highlights" are usually pretty good. By the nature of the highlight process. If you watch the games, you'll see plenty of less spectacular plays to accompany the good stuff too.

Yeah, I mean Bryan I'd say is a little more ridiculous than normal, but it's not like he's constantly doing this. Good news is he's doing this with very few real moves and basically provides a blank canvas with ridiculous tools to Marian Hobby. He did a heck of a job last year with our DL, let's hope he can continue that with Bryan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedyg Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Yeah he basically pops for 2-3 plays a game but if you watch the rest of the cut ups he just tries a bull rush and doesn't do much. Of course the 2-3 times he pops, he really pops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
