Canadian offensive lineman Matthew Bergeron selected 38th overall by Atlanta Falcons
Atlanta selected the Canadian offensive lineman in the second round of the NFL draft Friday night. The Falcons made a deal with the Indianapolis Colts to move up and select Bergeron with the seventh pick of the second round, No. 38 overall.
The burly Canadian anchored an offensive line that helped running back Sean Tucker gain more than 1,000 yards and become the first player in school history to record consecutive 1,000-yard seasons as well as 250-plus receiving yards. The scouting report on Bergeron said while he was a college tackle, he could end up being a guard in the NFL. Scouts felt he was evenly proportioned and wore his weight well and many were impressed with his run-blocking and his ability to excel in positioning, sustaining and then finishing.
“I think he can play tackle in a pinch he plays with really good balance. You rarely find him out of position.”“I thought he was a tackle when we watched him at the Senior Bowl with his movement skills and how he got out on plays,” he said. “But I see where moving him inside to guard works.”
