Lewan e Solak elogiam Germie Bernard, wide receiver escolhido pelo Steelers na segunda rodada

O ex-jogador de linha da NFL Taylor Lewan chamou o wide receiver Germie Bernard, escolha de segunda rodada do Pittsburgh Steelers, de 'o grande achado do Draft de 2026 da NFL', enquanto Benjamin Solak, da ESPN, apelidou-o de 'o melhor amigo do quarterback'. O atleta formado em Alabama complementa DK Metcalf e Michael Pittman Jr. no ataque de Mike McCarthy.

Conforme abordado em nossa série contínua sobre a busca dos Steelers por Germie Bernard, que culminou em uma troca para a 47ª escolha geral, outros analistas exaltaram o versátil wide receiver. No podcast Bussin’ with the Boys, o ex-tackle dos Titans, Taylor Lewan, comparou a estrutura física, as habilidades com a bola, o equilíbrio e a fisicalidade de Bernard aos de A.J. Brown, descrevendo-o como um encaixe perfeito para o estilo aguerrido de Pittsburgh. O analista da ESPN, Benjamin Solak, foi além, classificando Bernard como 'o melhor amigo do coordenador ofensivo' devido ao seu bloqueio de elite, precisão nas rotas, mãos confiáveis e capacidade de ganhar jardas após a recepção. Solak comparou-o a Puka Nacua e Cooper Kupp, projetando contribuições imediatas na posição de slot ao lado de Metcalf e Pittman sob o comando do técnico estreante McCarthy. O perfil de dupla ameaça de Bernard — 64 recepções para 862 jardas e sete touchdowns, além de 18 corridas para 101 jardas e duas pontuações em seu último ano universitário — destaca sua resiliência. Enquanto isso, Pittsburgh colocou uma tag de free agent não draftado em Aaron Rodgers em meio à incerteza na posição de QB, potencialmente unindo-o ao dinâmico grupo de recebedores.
