Shep will get picked up.

He's like a poor man's Randall Cobb.

UT (5):

Bray
Hunter
Patterson
Rivera
Thomas

Montori Hughes is a former Vol (played for UT-M). So if LSU is going to count their frick up, UT will take credit for 6.

Does this include all the guys who left early? I don't remember all the early exit guys, but it looks like all of them are making it the combine. Is that correct? Certainly helps validate their decisions at this point.

Yep. Every junior got invited, plus Lavar Edwards and PJ Lonergan as seniors.

Yeah I'm extremely surprised that Dennis Johnson didn't get invited. Whoever picks him up is going to get a steal.


I think I may be unfairly biased against him since he basically choked away two games against LSU. For his measurables, he just never really produced like you think he would.

19 TEs and no Michael Williams? I can't understand that. He's not going to be an NFL teams #1 TE but he'll be a solid blocking TE and possession type TE

Yeah.. They will add a couple more in the coming days... A lot of coaches around the country will call and lobby for their snubbed guys to get a shot and a few will get their wish... I hope Gilbert Pena gets an invite.. He's walking , talking proof of how bad our previous coaching staff was... Guy was a bust all season under Nutt's defensive staff but he was dominating SEC games by this past November. frick you Terry Price.

NFL teams aren't looking for blocking TE's anymore.

They want the next Tony Gonzales or Rob Gronkowski.

Of course every team would love to have the next Gonzales or Gronk but pretty much every NFL team carries 1 if not 2 blocking TEs like Michael Williams on their roster. Like the snub article said about Michael Williams, he'll be a #2 TE on an NFL roster for many years.

WTF??? wasn't this guy's play superior to Knile Davis's this year? To be honest i thought he looked like a straight up stud and carried the offense at times last year.

Let's not go crazy. The guy had 750 yards rushing last year.

Ryan Swope will be a great mid round pickup for someone needing a slot receiver. He's almost identical to Brandon Stokely's physical stats when he got drafted. I'm hoping the Texans pick him up, they desparately need a solid slot receiver on the roster.
