You are confusing separate issues here. 

Malik Jackson is not too old to play well for 3 or 4 more years. He simply costs too damn much.  Same with Dareus. 
The Jags likely value Ramsey and Ngakoue's 2nd contracts more than the final years of those guys' deals. 

Campbell on the other hand will begin to decline in the coming years unless he is some crazy outlier percentile example of beating father time. (he already is really) 

Two separate issues  - either of which could indeed be aided by the Bryan acquisition.

I was just responding the the couple of posters who said our interior was too old.

I can't be convinced that spending a 1st round pick on a player who's only positive trait is "potential" to replace and almost certainly downgrade a position to save some cash that could be saved in a million other ways is a good move for the team.

How many times will this fan base be duped by non productive college players with the only redeeming quality being "potential?" Matt Jones, Derrick Harvey, Blaine Gabbert, several others to a lesser degree, and now Bryan.
