I wonder if he would have done better staying at Clemson?

There were plenty of opportunities in 2020 for DTs, no doubt he would’ve been in a conference championship and the CFP to show up.

Kelly Bryant IS a lot like Lemur Jackson, just without the speed, agility, or arm.

Many fail to appreciate the late draft picks, and some even fail to be picked at all. Consider this though...Tom Brady was drafted in the 6th round. He was the 199th pick overall. He was not highly regarded at all entering the draft. Of course, 7 championships later he is. As long as a player makes it onto a team, he has a chance.

After the forth round of the NFL draft the chances of making a club start at 50% and go down each pick. So Tom Brady was the unicorn that beat the odds not the norm.

The Ravens are known for finding Gems. I think they have had the most undrafted players to make the team . . over all others. Here's hoping Kelly is one of them.
