26. Austin Bryant to the New England Patriots

After being injured in 2016, Austin Bryant has come back with a vengeance here in 2017.

Bryant has proved he is, without a doubt, worthy of a first-round pick. I think before it’s all said and done he could move up to the top-15 range depending on how the second half of the season goes.

Currently, Bryant has 29 total tackles, five sacks and an interception for the Tigers.

Bryant is a talented edge rusher and New England is in desperate need of some capable defensive linemen. I think that would be a great fit for him right out of college.
