SMU before transferring to Missouri for his last season of college football.He struggled a bit early in the season, specifically during the early portions of SEC play, but quickly got changed and produced four games of one or no pressures allowed to finish his tenure in Columbia.The Patriots utilized the fourth overall choice of the draft on left tackle Will Campbell from LSU, the very first lineman off the board, so it is unlikely Bryant will be far more than a backup at that area, though the Patriots had difficulty at many positions on the line last season and Bryant might move around.(Picture by Steve Roberts -U.S.A.
