Dicaprio Bootle

[lo country]

Best of luck.  Had a really good season IMO this year.  Can't blame him.  Would be his 6th year here....

According to PFF, Bootle allowed only 16 catches for 245 yards on 29 targets this past season.

Sad to see him go. He was a fun watch. And he looks good in red.

Loved him coming up to Frost after the Purdue game during the interview.  Wish him the best.

Selfishly hoping this means Ben might return.....Then again, I could very well be reading WAY too much into the tweet....

Good luck to Bootle.  If he shows well he can move his stock up.   :throwdabones1:

Wish him great success at the next level. I think he will be playing on Sundays,

GBR!!!

He was alright, improved but still was bad in vertical coverage.

Id bet he gets drafted 

ill take that bet...

I'm with you.  He's too undersized.  This Nebraska team will be lucky to have a single draft pick in a late round.

Sad about this. Ever since game 1 of the SF era, Bootle has been one of my favorites because of 1 play, I cant seem to find the clip but he completely blew up a lead blocker and I was so hyped. Honestly probably my favorite play from the last 3 years.

I dunno about that, if CTB declares I'd be shocked if a team didnt pick him up given his versatility. 

As it stands now tho, I'd probably agree.  Tho who knows- you'd think someone like bootle would receive a pretty solid indication where he'd potentiall fall round/pick wise.  Particularly in today's spread em out nfl, feel like the need for guys who can cover has never been higher

Good luck to all these guys going into the NFL draft. Not many of these guys are "leaving early" more just deciding not to come back for their 6th year and that is very understandable.

Bootle,  Domann,  jamies, get drafted, maybe stille,

Honas has a shot at a roster.

I bet you think we win 9 games next year too
