Germie Bernard

Bernard was selected by the Steelers in the second round of April's draft. Bernard is a solid, reliable receiver with good size who can align all over the formation (55% slot in 53 collegiate games). Despite playing at three schools in four years, Bernard's production increased each season, including a strong 64-862-7 receiving line (plus 18-101-2 rushing) in 2025. He dropped only four of 240 career targets. Bernard is likely to open his career third or fourth in line at receiver behind Michael Pittman Jr., DK Metcalf and perhaps Roman Wilson. That will create a tough path to consistent rookie-season usage and production, so he's only worth draft consideration in the later rounds.
