Damascus Destroyer Bryan Bresee is an SI All-American

Clemson Commitment Bryan Bresee is one of the most dominating defensive lineman in the country. Watch why he is an SI All-American.

If making things look easy is a criteria in the evaluation game, then Bryan Breese may be the top prospect in the nation. 

Over the last several seasons the 6-5, 290-pounder has made dozens of offensive linemen look silly on the field. 

A better tell for his college future, and very likely beyond, is just how many ways he can get by a blocker. 

A strong bull rush with his great size and raw power make the quickest path to the backfield, Bresee plays on a consistently-low plane and generates a lot of force in short spaces. 

His most valuable asset, especially at his size, is just how quickly he puts pressure on his opponent. From gambling on snap counts to an innate ability to burst off of the line, Bresee closes the distance between he and his opponent better than any interior prospect in the country. 

Once at the point, he has a flurry of moves to counter the pure power with and it leads to big hits and/or turnovers. Big, quick, strong and able to transition like a skill player, it will be hard to keep Breese off the field at Clemson early in his career.
