I think 1 or 2 picks apart, around #11 and 12-13, iirc

#9 and #15..... Thought they had been drafted higher.

 

[VolsnCards5]

Cadillac Williams and Ronnie Brown in 05

Oh yea...2 and 5...wow

They should have been...some big time busts in this class

Man, that whole situation really seems like malzahn is playing with fire.

Easy way to lose a team.

Yep. I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze

OTs Charles McRae and Antone Davis went #7 & 8, respectively, in the 1991 draft.

they were awesome... seems like davis and howard come to minds as the rb's

Nothing ground breaking but wanted to share.

Kerbyson
Kendrick
Crowder
Jones
Thomas


Roberson would take a spot if healthy.

Also first practice yesterday was cancelled for a fresher night scrimmage and to avoid injuries.

RB depth for legit contribution? Looks good in drills but need more live action to tell the tale.

Hinted that Dobbs was not great in practice but was a gamer.

Hyams on Khalil:

Will require 2 blockers. Staff trying to get him down to 330 he's well over 340.

Will need he and Tuttle by AR.

Will take a few games to get adjusted.

When teammates brag on you you know your good, teammates are bragging.

Phillips is really good will contribute a lot.

Vols have rabbit package with 4 DE's.

My question is, is Kyle Phillips as good and as impressive at this point as Derek Barnett was last year? It kind of sounds like it.

Made it sound like if it weren't for our outstanding DE's already that he would start.

Dobbs, in his third year, with nine starts to his name, is still having sketchy practices. And people wonder why maybe the coaches were sticking with Worley until they couldn't based on practices and 2013 tape.

The 2014 games were much better than the 2013 games so I'm not worried about it, but I'm surprised he's still having bad practices at this point. He didn't strike me as the gamer type.

Edit: you edited your post and changed the whole thing?

Rabbit package with 4 DEs? Barnett, Maggitt, Phillips/Weatherd/Mixon/Vereen? Yes please!!!

Doubt Phillips but yes it will be beastly. Similar to the nascar package we had.

Seriously? Did you not watch the Army AA game last year? This package is perfect for him...great burst and tremendous speed. Situational football is great for a true FR. He comes in and Stripling says go get the QB. He doesn't have to think. I fully expect to see him in this package a lot on 3rd and long, especially if he is as good as all the reports are making him out to be.

Could be right. Our vets are good too.

Good read. Thank you.

left to right KK, Kendrick, Crowder, JRob, Thomas.

Without correct comma placement, the left side of the line might be mistaken for racist....just in case, may wanna change KK to Kerby

:hi:

This was my go-to website during the season last year. Really informative. Go back and read the posts from last season, really sheds some light on Bajakian and his scheme.

First I've heard it. Everyone else says Dobbs has been much better this camp than last

Good Lord...the stunts and things you could run out of that.

It's possible that he just isn't that good in a structured practice setting, particularly one in which he has to pass from the pocket.

Sounds that way to me too. That's scary for the rest of the SEC. Two Derek Barnetts on the field. :yikes:
