Overview

Bergstrom has started three consecutive seasons at Utah, and is an older prospect considering the fact that he went on a religious mission for two years before playing with the Utes full-time. He is a mature player who is reliable, and hasn't allowed many sacks throughout his collegiate career. Bergstrom is a very good mover in space and works well to the second level, so although he hasn't played the position, he could be an option for teams to work at guard. Either way, Bergstrom is a solid, reliable, risk-free prospect who could eventually develop into a starter and should settle into a backup role nicely early on; late-round value.

Analysis

Strengths

Bergstrom is a very good mover in space. He is not very aggressive in any of his blocks, but when pulling he is very good to chop his feet, gather his weight and settle into a block to put himself into a position to get movement and keep sustained. He is a technically sound player who uses his hands well. He looks natural in his pass set and gets his hands readied early to fight off rushers. He isn't very strong, but relies on feet and technique to work on the line and make reliable blocks.

Weaknesses

Bergstrom is a non-explosive, almost weak offensive lineman. He doesn't get much of a jolt when working off the ball and struggles to get a lot of movement when blocking for the run. He is not aggressive in his blocks and is more of a catcher who uses his feet and hands to react and mirror. Bergstrom is what he is: Reliable, big, and a student of the game, but he isn't going to blow anyone away at the next level.

Grade Title Draft (Round) Description
96-100 Future Hall of Famer Top Pick A once-in-a-generation type prospect who could change how his position is played
85-95 Immediate Starter 1st An impact player with the ability/intangibles to become a Pro Bowl player. Expect to start immediately except in a unique situation (i.e. behind a veteran starter).
70-84 Eventual Starter 2nd-3rd A quality player who will contribute to the team early on and is expected to develop into a starter. A reliable player who brings value to the position.
50-69 Draftable Player 4th-7th A prospect with the ability to make team as a backup/role player. Needs to be a special teams contributor at applicable positions. Players in the high range of this category might have long-term potential.
20-49 Free Agent UDFA A player with solid measurables, intangibles, college achievements, or a developing skill that warrants an opportunity in an NFL camp. In the right situation, he could earn a place on a 53-man roster, but most likely will be a practice squad player or a camp body.
