| Ya, if someone had a good enough year to be a threat to leave early, I would take that as a good thing. | |

He could easily have a huge year and be a 3rd round or better draft pick and leave early. He is a much better pro prospect than Jesse Mahelona ever was. | |

| As much as Tennessee does not need to lose any depth on the DLine, Williams and, or Bolden getting drafted might help to sway some future recruits. | |

Agree 100 percent.
Williams is around 6' 3" - 6' 4" if I'm not mistaken, and Mahelona was at least a couple of inches shorter. | |
