Keith Bryant came to FSU as a highly regarded four-star defensive tackle recruit. He checked in at 6’1 300 pounds with a player rating of 92.05.

Bryant red-shirted the 2013 season who has not been able to contribute much at all due to always being injured.

He worked hard and changed positions to defensive end, but those injuries arose again causing him to miss the entire 2016 season. He has one year of eligibility remaining.

Grade- D

Bryant receives this grade because expectations haven’t been close to being met. Some of that is bad injury luck, but a player rated this highly needs to be able to produce.

That hasn’t happened with Bryant, but maybe we’ll finally see something worthwhile in 2017?
