BC Pro Day

Hey all -

We're out of hibernation and on a field trip to Boston College's Pro Day, where 22 NFL teams have sent at least one representative to keep an eye on the activities.

Most of them - and many of the reporters as well - are here to see QB Matt Ryan and OL Gosder Cherilus. But we're here mostly to see East Providence's Jamie Silva.

Silva has already run his two 40-yard dashes, his long hair kept down by a black headband, giving him a Captain Caveman-like appearance. Silva slipped off the line at the start of his second run and pulled up before finishing. He waited a minute and went again, though we don't know yet what his times were. Silva was not happy with his 40 times at the Combine and wanted to put up a better nmber today even though he knows that is not his strength.

Kansas City has five representatives here, including head coach Herm Edwards, offensive coordinator Chan Gailey and GM Carl Peterson. The Patriots are represented by scouts Brian Flores and DuJuan Daniels.

Ryan currently is louging in one end of the field, chatting with Edwards. He will do a series of drills solo in a little while.
