Blake Holden brings NFL-caliber burst to USD’s interior
Blake Holden is a 6-2, 300-pound South Dakota defensive tackle whose standout trait is rare get-off for his size, with reports from Pro Day noting explosive first-step quickness and a sub-5.00 40-yard dash. That combination makes him more than just a space-eater: he can disrupt plays before they develop and fit into an aggressive front. He looks like a strong fit for teams prioritizing interior penetration, athleticism, and upside over pure mass.
