Not only is M. Hardestys draft stock rising, but so is Dan Williams and Rico McCoy. It's possible that we have four players drafted in the first two rounds of the draft next year including Berry. I think that is important for recruiting considering we have a coaching staff with so much NFL experience.

Seeing the difference with Hardesty he should get a decent pick and a team will get a good back. I bet the NFL is drooling at the defensive players coming out of Knoxville with Monte coaching them.

Monterio is Definetly going up. Dan Williams is playing like a freakin monster the last 3 or 4 games. An McCoy has been a stud all year. He'll be like jurod mayo. Know one not really knowing too much till the combine.

Monterio is a beast!!! If he isnt a 1st round pick, somebody is gonna get a steal in a later round. He looks and plays like an NFL back, this guy has moves like no one else.

At this point, the only thing that may keep him from being a first round draft pick is the fact that he does have an injury history, but if I'm a team looking for a solid back I would take a chance on him...He's taken a beating in some games this season and stayed healthy...That spin move he put on that SC DB last night was just plain SICK

I agree with you on the injury history, but to any owner or GM worried about that, I say look at Adrian Peterson. That was the knock on him in college and he's held up pretty well so far!

you guys forget the man who has improved his draft stock the most is Chris Scott. This guy is looking like a starting Tackle in the NFL with the way he's playing.

Absolutely, to me what makes what he has done this year so impressive is he is running behind a line of walk-ons....That's not a knock on the line, because they have played well at times this year but if Hardesty had the offensive line Ingram does at Bama his numbers would be insane

I watched the ESPN replay this morning and Blackledge said when he watched the film from our previous 2 games that Dan Williams jumped off the screen...He really has been played lights out the past few games

The guy's name is definitely Montario with an "A", not an "E." Figured if Kiffin and Bryce get nit-picked at, so should Montario.

Stocker will be the surprise here, similar to Cottam last year except for Stocker is catching some balls. He has the size and athletism that you look for in an NFL tight end and will continue to rise up draft boards. His hands are the difference this year...they arent bricks. Can see him potentially moving into the late 2nd round with a good combine.

This will be a great year for DT's in the draft. Sue, Marvin Austin, Gerald McCoy, Dan Williams, and that fatty from bama.

Crompton may have improved his stock some. I wouldn't be surprised if someone used a 6th or 7th round pick on him.

He's played lights out for the past two and a half seasons.

If Dan slips to the 2rd, I hope the Titans snag him...and I want them to draft EB in the 1st! How cool would that be...to have both guys stay instate...and the Titans desperately need help at both positions. They can shift either EB or Griffin to CB.

I think about 60% of the reason why their season has turned out so dramatically worse than the last is them goofing around and not wanting to pay Haynesworth what he was worth before he ever hit free agency.....he was the HEART of the defense. So, drafting Dan would help fill the massive void to some small degree.

If Vince doesn't pan out at QB by season's end, I'm thinking they have to draft either Colt McCoy or Bradford, but EB will be very hard to pass up.

Montario is fixing to be making some nice checks next year.

If he comes on strong the rest of the year, I can see him go by late 1st Rd....there may be some others with more yardage, but his highlight film will be off the charts, including that nasty spin move yesterday.

I haven't seen a RB this year more adept at making tacklers miss, or with better ability to carry the pile for the 1st down marker, and he has the jets to go with it. He's every bit the RB Ronnie Brown or Caddillac was/is.

He blew me away with his downfield catching in the Bama game...and I was thinking, that is going to be on his draft highlight reel. NFL coaches are going to love that. If he has a good combine, I can see a 1st Rd grade on him, easily. In fact, I would even like to see us trade Lendale White for a 2nd rd pick and take Hardesty.
He's twice the back White is, IMHO. This way, you'd still have Thunder and Lightning (CJ and Hardesty)
