Random fact

Bullard was at Notre Dame for two seasons before transferring to Tennessee in 2011. At Tennessee, he made starts at all three interior spots on the offensive line and even played some tight end as well.

What the experts are saying

Draft Insider:

Bullard has fallen under the radar in the scouting community because of his size but possesses the versatility, power, and skill to back up at multiple interior offensive line positions for a power running or ball control offense.

Outlook for 2014

Bullard's versatility would be very useful in a backup role, but there is only one spot truly up for grabs for the interior offensive line, and it's tough to see him beating out Rodney Austin. Bullard should be in the mix for the practice squad, though.
