All accounts so far have Watson tearing up the Senior Bowl.

I'm trying to think of how we can get Lawson and Watson.....

We would have to package Ellis or Glover, our number 2, next years 2 / 4.

I would rather find another DT like Fifta in the later rounds and get more picks to stock pile talent. But I really would like Watson and Lawson.

Lawson likely will be there in 2nd.


Lets also factor John Abraham in - he's another option at OLB/DE in FA.

im not sure he will fall to our pick in the 2nd. and no thanks on John, we don't an overpriced FA. anyone have a serious idea what John is asking for or who his agents are? seems like he is gonig to want too much.

I know you generally want a shorter guy for a NT, but also a huge guy too. Now they say Jesse's 311, but he was listed at 297 by UT and he looked it to me. He looked like half the equation to me for a 34 NT, and with his quickness, he's a nice match for a 4-3 dt. Not saying he can't be a NT, but I think there's probably some better options.

What exactly is your point listing those players?

Would you not agree that with the Rose Bowl predictions, that Tennessee severely underachieved by not even making it to a bowl game? Would you not agree that Mahelona was one of the few who played up to expectations this season?

But this isn't a thread dedicated to Tennessee, so lets stay on topic.

But if you want to make a Tennessee thread on the college board, I'm there dude.

Well that you were wrong in saying Mahelona was one of the only bright spots on the Vols D. It was one of the best D's in the country and had several good players. You see some of those guys on draft day this year and next.

Now you're bringing up the outcome of UT's season, and I don't know what that has to do with this thread.

Most UT fans (including me) will say Mahelona didn't live up to his Jr year. That was another reason why I questioned if you had watched any of their games this year.
