Texas LB Jaylan Ford declares, and WR Adonai Mitchell is expected to enter the NFL draft in 2024 with the expectation of hosting former Oregon State WR Silas Bolden.
Former Oregon State wide receiver Silas Bolden is anticipated in Texas.
In 2024, there will be a lot of new faces in the Texas wide receiver room as Xavier Worthy, Adonai Mitchell, and Jordan Whittington all declared for the NFL draft.
This weekend, Silas Bolden, a former wide receiver for Oregon State, is anticipated in Texas; he could be a significant addition via the transfer portal.
Bolden is 5-foot-8 and weighs 157 pounds, but don’t let that deceive you. He led the Beavers in 2023 in both the receiving yardage and touchdown totals, with 746.
Adonai Mitchell was a tremendous addition to the Texas Longhorns’ receiving room the previous season, according to head coach Steve Sarkisian.

The receiving room will feel much more at ease when Texas joins the SEC if they are able to acquire Silas Bolden.
Texas linebacker Jaylan Ford to enter the 2024 NFL Draft
The decision of Texas linebacker Jaylan Ford to join the 2024 NFL draft was made public on Monday. The Frisco senior played a crucial role in the Texas Longhorns’ defense, which has grown to be among the finest in the country.
Ford persevered through difficult circumstances while playing for some poor Texas clubs. A 12-2 record, a Big 12 Conference Championship, and a College Football Playoff berth were the ultimate results of it.
Ford had played football every year since his arrival in 2020, but it wasn’t until his 2022 campaign that he gained national recognition as one of the top linebackers. Ford has tallied three forced fumbles, three interceptions, and three sacks since the beginning of the previous campaign. In the 2024 NFL Draft, Ford is ranked as the 10th best linebacker prospect.
The NFL draft is anticipated to see Texas wide receiver Adonai Mitchell.
Texas wide receiver Adonai Mitchell is anticipated to declare for the 2024 NFL draft with great expectation surrounding his choice.
After playing in two National Championships with the Georgia Bulldogs, Mitchell switched to Texas in the previous season. In major league games, he was renowned for his playmaking skills.
With 11 touchdowns and a career-high 845 receiving yards, the junior wide out led all Longhorns. While playing on the same field as NFL-caliber pass catchers like Jordan Whittington, Ja’Tavion Sanders, and Xavier Worthy, he managed to do this.
During Steve Sarkisian’s three-year tenure, he was one of the most significant contributions to the transfer portal. Sarkisian has demonstrated his capacity to prioritize quality over quantity when it comes to athletes in the portal. It is anticipated that Mitchell will go undrafted in the first or second round of the 2024 NFL draft.
