Taven Bryan making good impression early on for Jacksonville Jaguars

Despite the fact that the Jacksonville Jaguars have a dearth of talent all across the defensive line, it’s good to develop a steady rotation and have a deep depth chart at a position where injuries are all too common.

Coming out of Florida, Bryan was viewed as arguably the most talented defensive lineman in the draft. Despite his raw technique, Bryan was seen as a guy with sky-high upside, and even drew comparisons to four time Pro Bowler JJ Watt for his physical playing style, passion, and alpha dog mentality.

One of the things that inevitably makes the adjustment period from college to the pros that much harder is the fact that many players go from being the hot shot high draft choice, to competing with seasoned veterans who already know the ropes.
