I'm going with Shy Tuttle. Teams were concerned about his injuries, but dude is still super-athletic for his size. He also is much better than he looked last season, as he was playing out of position at NT in a 3-4 scheme. He's a very smart player as well.

Phillips has a good shot at a roster, too, but personally I feel like Tuttle is the best "football player" out of guys leaving this year.

Agreed, I really hope he makes the roster in NOLA and stays healthy.

Honestly I think Sapp has the best chance.

However, I think Phillips, Sapp, and Abernathy all make a roster.

Each NFL team only carries 1-2 UDFA on their final roster maximum.

That being said I don't think any of those players offer anything unique enough to warrant making the final 53. I see practice squad in the future for all of them.

I'd say Shy. He takes a "redshirt" year on the practice squad, and a year in an NFL S&C program, I could see him on the 53 man roster in 2020. I think he showed the most promise of group. I like Phillips as well, but I believe the Jets run a 34. I'm not sure if he's big enough to play end, or fluid enough to be an olb in that system. Nonetheless, I'm pulling for all of them GB🍊.

Phillips has the most upside and potential to be a playmaker in the NFL, Imo. He's a monster OLB or a good-sized WDE that has good speed and the dog in him that a team needs and covets. Jmo

If Tuttle can stay away from former UGA linemen trained in the art of the cheap blind shot to the knee, he might make it. Every time I see that play I despise that school, team, fans, and coaches a little more.

UGA. Cheap Shot U.

I can't believe there wasn't some sort of retaliation from the DL for that garbage. That UGA player had a history of such going back to high school. KARMA is a bee-otch and when it gets him, everyone should stand and cheer.

Tennessee was the "only team in the SEC" to not have a player go in the NFL draft.

This says alot about the Vols the last several years, 3 out of 5 years the Vols didn't have 1 player drafted, no wonder we've lost to Vanderbilt 4 out of the last 6 years,
Thanks,
Butch Jones

The "Vols SEC record" goes along with the Vols poor NFL draft record, unfortunately
