No. 3 — How will Bryant’s deep ball look?

Bryant came to Missouri to improve his chance at making the NFL. If he wants to do that, part of what he’ll need to do is be a better thrower of the football, in particular, a more accurate down-field passer.

He believes offensive coordinator Derek Dooley will help with that.

Bryant already is a great athlete with a skillset that is sure to help the Tigers this season. He makes smart decisions and can beat you with his legs. Heading into the season, he’d like to work on those deep throws that will help push defenses back and open up the field more.

We know the opportunities will be there. The Tigers will have a solid rushing attack led by Larry Rountree III and Tyler Badie, as well options in the short game with Albert O and Johnson. Will Bryant take advantage of those opportunities?
