I believe Tillman will go ahead of Hyatt. Pros will like Hyatt's speed but they seem to be in love with receivers who can win the 50/50 matchups. I believe both Hyatt and Tillman will have great pro careers.

The Orange in my blood tells me that Hooker should be the first QB taken. The head on my shoulders tells me that Levis will go ahead of him. Hooker had great numbers but some GMs are also going to look at his time at VT. Also, Levis is bigger and stronger, which GMs like. I believe both Hooker and Levis will be better pro QBs than Bryce Young.
Those are just my opinions. What the %^&* do I know? If I had all the answers, I would be a GM, making a gazillion bucks, instead of whacking at the keyboard, for free.

No to all of that haha

Still baffles me that Princeton Fant didn't get an invite to combine as he had a pretty good year for us. He's very athletic and can fit a multitude of roles. I think he would have tested well at combine and gained some stock....

Now the Pro Day will be crucial for him.

We are not sniffing three first-rounders. Hyatt will go in the first round; Wright might, but doubtful. Nobody else has a shot at that round despite what Kiper says.

Wow, I keep seeing Darnell W being a fairly solid Round 1 possibility, I've seen this in numerous mock-drafts done by amateurs (who cares) but also more than one or two "professional" evaluators. We shall see, but I surely hope so. And Ced Tillman is almost certainly unlikely going in Rd 1, based on his loss of production and injury history. And this draft is WR rich they say. So that will hurt CT as well. But I could see him being a solid contributor in the right place. Much like we all felt sure that JuJennings could be a really good pro, he had to go to the right place (Niners) and coach to utilize him. He very nearly did not make it, and spent at least a year or more on practice squad. But I will forever love JJ - what a beast WR Vol.

Where did you get your jump-to-conclusions mat? I’ve been looking for one.

You might have missed the board during the Scarolina game. Everyone on here blamed the loss on Banks. Without that loss, we’re in the playoffs. We would have gotten uga on a neutral field with no bad weather. W for the Vols.

NFL teams have begun to realize the benefits of having WRs who can break a game win open. Tillman would be able to help a lot of teams increase their offensive potential. I think he will be gone before the start of the 3rd round.

Playoffs - yes
Nat championship - no

I am actually not sure about that. If we can assume Banks plays, then we probably aren’t down that badly, and maybe a different play is called and Hooker doesn’t get hurt.
If that is the case, I think we could have outscored Georgia - just maybe - second time around ….
Hell, if we coulda’ caught some of those bombs like we had against Bama… we woulda’ beat ‘em the first time .

Banks ain't no VFL - cost us the Playoffs and likely Natty.

Jeremy Banks didn't make the entire defense lay down that week. I dont think Tim Banks did either. So im not sure what you mean.

Those defensive players half assed that game from the get-go and likely did the same the entire week. That is on each of them and the coaching staff for not being aware that it was going to happen.

I dont know the details of what happened. I do know his defensive peers played like they felt like he got shafted.
