SALT LAKE CITY — The NFL draft begins Thursday, but only one local player is expected to hear his named called in the first round in primetime.
Garett Bolles’ career at Utah was shorter than expected — he played just one season on the Utes’ offensive line and helped them to a 9-4 record and a win over Indiana in the Foster Farms Bowl before a trip to the NFL Combine, where he ran a 4.95 40-yard dash.
Even after just one year of Division I college football, Bolles is on plenty of draft boards.
