Draft Scouting Report
Pro Comparison: Alec Ingold
Summary
Max Bredeson is a versatile, hard-nosed blocker who served as the emotional and physical heart of the Michigan offense. A former high school quarterback turned hybrid fullback, he thrives in a blue-collar role where he functions like an athletic offensive lineman in space. While he is rarely used in the passing game, his ability to sustain blocks and impact the run game makes him a valuable situational depth contender.

Vikings' Max Bredeson: Picked by Vikings
The Vikings selected Bredeson in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 159th overall.
For a fullback to go in the fifth round these days is to all but set aside a roster spot for him, though Bredeson's lack of athletic testing makes it difficult to assess how notable of a fullback prospect he might be. Either way, the Michigan product has a good chance to make the Minnesota roster following the retirement of longtime standout fullback C.J. Ham.
