Hearing a lot of speculation, and have seen a LOT of mocks, but how many Vols do you think go in the 1st round, and where do you think they land? Where do you want them to land?

Two in the first, two in the second.

Which two are which, tougher to say. I would guess Wright and Hyatt in Round 1, but could be Wright and Hooker or Wright and Tilman.

Look forward to finding out.

Go Vols!

I see WR being prioritized again in the pass happy NFL. So I think Wright and Hyatt go 1st, then Hooker in the 2nd, followed by BY and Tillman in the 3rd.

Banks will go somewhere in the 6th or 7th.

The rest will be UFAs. (Carvin, Brooks, maybe Flowers)

Agr and the QB processing test knocks Hooker down a few rounds.
Wright goes 1st around. I think Young may go before Hyatt.

I think that Darnell Wright is a lock to go in the first. I think Hooker could be a surprise 1st round pick, but it's more likely some team will take him at the top of the second. Hyatt will go in the 2nd, and Tillman in the 3rd. Just my opinion.

Patriots seem the most common pick for Wright. I think Hooker would be a great fit in Atlanta to pair with Drake London and Cordarrelle Patterson and Kyle Pitts. I just hope he goes to a place he gets a chance at. Houston, Tennessee, Atlanta, Seattle, Minnesota, all of those would be great fits for him.

Hyatt.....I saw in one draft he went to the Chiefs, and holy cow wouldn't that be something?

Wright and Hooker will go in the first round. Don't be surprised to see HH go before Wright. Hyatt and Tillman get picked in the second round. Byron Young looks to be a third round pick. Both Hyatt and Young have the potential to move up a round. I think Trevon Flowers will get picked in the later rounds. It may be better for him to go undrafted instead of being a seventh round pick. UDFAs can pick their destination and their salaries aren't much different than seventh picks. Arian Foster did pretty well as an UDFA.

I think it depends on how the draft goes. If the other 4 QB's that are highly regarded are gone in the top ten then I think Hooker will snick into the 1st round. Same with WR, Hyatt isn't the top options but if receivers start to go then he won't be to far behind.

Wright and Hyatt are locks. Hyatt was the fastest WR at the combine and has production as well. Teams don’t listen to the nonsense of mock drafts - they like fast receivers, and a receiver with his speed plus his production in the SEC ain’t making it out of the first round.

Wright in the first round, Hyatt and maybe Hooker in the second, Tillman 3 or 4th round.

Hyatt was tied for 5th . He didn’t do himself any favors with his 40 time D090DD0D-19CE-4F05-8786-32C0FFBA6865.jpeg

I really would love to see the Titans stay put where they are in the 1st, take an OT like the one from Northwestern or Broderick Jones, and then trade back up in the 1st and get Hendon. If they draft Levis, I will never again watch a Titans game.

Wright and Hooker round 1. Tillman, Hyatt, and Young in round 2. I think Tillman goes a few picks before Hyatt but both are gone by mid 2nd round. I think Byron Young sneaks into the end of round 2. This from Jim Nagy below makes me think Young goes higher than most anticipate.

"Talking to NFL scouts about who impressed in team interviews & one name keeps coming up—Tennessee’s Byron Young.

He worked at Dollar General and played juco ball prior to Vols.

Scouts say you can feel his hunger and passion.

@byron_97 also crushed Combine w/ 4.43 40 & 11’ BJ."

2*. Wright and Hooker (sneaks in at the end of the round).

*I wanted to say 3. Slight chance that Hyatt could make it as well.
