Silas and Pro Day

[817 Boxing B]

Guys.. I don't know about you, but my main man Silas Bolden has to be on somebody's roster. Pro Day is monumental for him, in my opinion. Call your shot.. what does he run in the 40? Will he make a catch or 2 for Quinn that will catch the eyes of the numerous scouts that will be in attendance? His heart and explosiveness definitely could be used in today's NFL, especially with the dynamic kickoff rules. Any other Horns that need a big pro day to be a late day 3 pick or be a priority UDFA? Thoughts?

4.36 in the 40. Shows great hands and rout running.

Could be drafted, but probably UDFA. Oregon's Tez Johnson, who was projected as a mid round pick, only ran 4.51 and weighed 154.

4.29

You need to put your 40 time.

I like Bolden and I think he makes somebody's roster.  The kid is tough and (I think) underutilized as a WR at Texas.

I think he runs a 4.42 at pro day, but his lateral quickness and short burst ability will be on full display.

I’m thinking 4.40 maybe 4.37 at best 

[CJ Vogel]

Probably 4.4

[thatdude2]

4.19

 

[UT_Ro]

4.38

The 10 yard split will probably help...he's quicker than he is fast.

Last time someone called a 40 time……ummm

I'm going 4.37 and he will high jump 38 1/2. The route running and hands are going to be a major bonus. He, along with Helm and Golden, are the guys who went and got footballs for Quinn. Not much tape... but all of his tape is playmaking tape. Whether it's catches, returns, or hustle plays... they all were game winning plays... chain movers. He's going to find a spot on someone's roster and if he doesn't, it would be a travesty.

Great minds think alike...4.4 will be a death nail though. He needs 4.3 something along with the tape to get an honest look, IMO...🫡🤘🏿

I know what would help, put a football on the ground at the 41st yd line and get someone in a stutsman jersey to try racing him for it.  That's when Bolden comes out of his cleats!

[All Gas No Brakes]

My prediction is 4.33. He’s gonna go in prepared to run his 40 run faster than people are predicting. More like Barron and Golden, and unlike Blue and Bond.
