This. He didn't play outside very much for the Gators. He was worked mostly inside. And he honestly didn't play a whole lot for them to begin with. The Jaguars thought they were set to be a play-off team for the next few years after the 2017 campaign ended. They considered Bryan a project player to work in behind Campbell just based on his frame and showing at the combine. 

But he did seem out of place too much off the edge as a rookie. That's just from being extremely raw and we all know that. But the idea that he's not strong enough (and I am not aiming this at you) is hilarious. The kid threw 225 pounds up 30 times on the bench. And still cleared a 4.98 at the combine in the 40 at his size. Those are good numbers to have... for an inside defender who played inside at Florida. Not outside. At least not yet.

I think he'll find his home this year playing inside for us. He did use the bull rush move quite a bit off the edge as a rookie. And he was flat out moving guys with two hands in front of him at times. Maybe he was caught out of position and appeared "weak" and "slow" off the edge because he was thinking too much and trying to figure out how to approach his role. Moving him back inside is the best way to go.
