RAVENS ADD POTENTIAL CENTER BERGSTROM Friday, September 1, 2017
The Baltimore Ravens acquired offensive lineman Tony Bergstrom from the Arizona Cardinals for a conditional seventh-round draft pick in 2018.
What does it give the Baltimore Ravens?
The Ravens have been searching for help on the interior of their offensive line all training camp, so it is no surprise that Baltimore added Bergstrom prior to the start of the regular season. He is a veteran who can play guard and also center, a position of weakness for the Ravens. Look for Bergstrom to challenge incumbent center Ryan Jensen for the starting gig.
What does it give the Arizona Cardinals?
The Cardinals had a little excess in terms of offensive linemen capable of playing center. Therefore, Bergstrom was not expected to make Arizona's final 53-man roster. Therefore, they did well to move him on to Baltimore, where he will almost surely see more regular playing time in 2017. The pick coming back to the Cards in this deal is not much, though.
Fantasy Impact
There is no fantasy value here, as Bergstrom is not even guaranteed to play a lot with the Ravens this season.
