6. Jeff Bryant

Jeff Bryant is the first of two Tigers taken as the No. 6 overall pick. We used age as precedent, so that means the guy that was selected first is ranked higher.

Bryant was taken No. 6 overall in the 1982 draft by the Seattle Seahawks.

He went on to play 12 seasons with the Seahawks and totaled 63 sacks. Bryant was a key piece of Clemson football’s first National Championship in 1981 under Coach Danny Ford.
