quote:
Bundy, if you're counting that white LB that all the State fans love(I think because he's white)
reduce your number to 6.
We will have 5 on the starting defense drafted this year...and that is assuming Autry and Nickoe don't choose to come out early. There are more than 6-7 NFL players on our defense, Bundy was just being conservative(for once). We will rotate through 5-6 likely NFL guys on the DL alone.

Banks - 1st
Boyd - 3rd-4th
Lawrence - 6th
Broomfield - 7th
Slay not yet projected but will go somewhere near when Boyd does. There is no discernible drop off from Banks to him, but given that he was a late enrollee out of JUCO and didn't start till very late last season, he is still flying under the radar.

Broomfield isn't getting drafted. Smart heady player, but he isn't worth a frick in a NFL setting.
Banks is a stud.

AJ Johnson, Maggit, Waggner, Mo Couch, McCullers, and Randoph (get well soon) will all play in the NFL IMO. So there are 6 future NFLers on UT's defense too... just a matter of getting comfortable with the schemes.

State has the more balanced team, which is why we will win.
Tenn has a Good QB and a couple good WRs. Not much else. And a little bit of pressure dismantles that QB

you just gave me a link saying he's the 7th best draft eligble OLB in the SEC and the 21st in the country.
calling him a quote "NFL player" is a bit of a stretch.
nice player, overrated by state fans.

Darius Slay will be a 3-5 round pick as well.

I also belive our our RS FR LB Benardrick McKinney will be a future NFL player. He is 6'4" 240 and was recently named SEC Freshman defensive player of the week.
Kid played QB in HS and is just now learning to play his position.

Just for reference, I took the CBS link and filtered on Tenn and MSU players. Both schools are projected with 5 draftable players. I didn't count prospects who appear in the 7-FA rd.
In order of draft rank.
