Happy hunting!
Buffalo went LB with their third-round pick and Bernard looks like he’ll contribute as their third LB. They needed a player they could develop at the position and Tremaine Edmunds, although a voice in the room, hasn’t been a standout player. Matt Milano is a nice player, but he’s a replaceable piece.
Bernard is a good nickel LB and has good instincts. He’s like that small dog who doesn’t know how small he is - he plays much bigger than his size. I don’t like the missed tackles - 17 or more in two of his three seasons at Baylor but he was a tackle machine - recording a 14.6% tackle rate which led to 270 tackles over three seasons.
He’s going to compete for the third LB spot behind Milano, so I’m not expecting too many snaps as a rookie, as the Bills rarely use three LBs. If they allow him to develop, he could take on a full-time role over the next few seasons. He’s a taxi squad stash.
