Let’s face it, Bryan won’t do anything this year so he will have the next couple years before he could be in the same spot.

I wasn’t trolling

1. He's a freaking rookie.
2. It's rare that rookies step into the pros and play lights out football in their first season, nevermind their first half of said season.
3. The expectation we put on high draft rookies is getting out of control (as is the money we throw at them) and is why we are willing to give up on them halfway through their "freshman" season and fire the guy who drafted him.
4. There are players who didn't do great in college transition to the pros and, once they get the hang of it end up doing very well. It may be in their second season but something is better than nothing. 
5. Again, he is a rookie.
