The Jaguars looked to build their defensive line on Thursday night in the NFL Draft, picking DT Taven Bryan in the first round.
The pick from Florida is sure to add even more beef to an already excellent defensive line, and there’s plenty of excitement about the pick of Bryan.
CBS Sport gave the Jags a ‘B+’ for the Pick:
Pete Prisco: Love this pick even with their quality players up front. They can’t pay them all, so a cheap option makes sense. Oh, he can play.
Chris Trapasso: Tantalizing size, athleticism, hand-use combination. Strong against the run. Reminiscent but not to the level of J.J. Watt. Flashes are All-Pro caliber. Needs to improve his overall consistency.
