A team captain at Pittsburgh, Bartholomew (6’5/246) was a starter in all four of his college seasons. He tallied 326 receiving yards and four touchdowns as a freshman, but was not able to exceed either total the rest of his college career. Bartholomew possesses speed with the ability to chew up yards over the middle of the field, but lacks explosive production. He is more likely to be a short-area target rather than a downfield pass-catcher. As a blocker, Bartholomew has size but will need to improve his strength to sustain blocks against bigger defenders. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler says Bartholomew’s “intangibles will make it tough for a coaching staff to cut him,” noting he had a “positive influence in the program” as team captain. Though he will need to demonstrate his skill set for an NFL team to keep him on the roster, Bartholomew’s intangibles will at least earn him a chance.
