Another Tennessee player has gone public with his NFL Draft decision. UT’s coaches and players will probably be happier with this one, though.

Yeah, my bad. Just was confused as Wes's story states that McCullers was the first junior that confirmed he is coming back.

McCullers and Sentimore back would be tremendous for our defense. Now what is the news on Taylor and Phillips? Any news on Bonner?

Speaking of the OL. Next years starting 5 could/most likely will all be drafted by end of round 3(Bullard has to play himself up a bit but Stone with his versitility and Fulton 's mammoth size and strength are both there already imo) with possibility of 2(Tiny & James) 1st rounders. That is unreal. I hope Coach Mahoney has a smooth transition with this group.

Great news! Big Dan will be a one man wrecking crew next year. Will be interesting to see him play in a 4-3 set.

This is great for TN and for Dan. He will be a wrecking ball next year and a top two rounder if he stays hungry and healthy. Good news! Vols!

Really so Bray hasnt made up his mind yet.I really think he might be second guessing and realizing another year would help his draft stock.Look I know statistically he had a good year. However this was his first year to play an entire season.He also did not play that well in Big Games by throwing picks.He should stay and realize if he comes out he wont get drafted until late in the third early fourth round.I think NFL coaches will see his lack of leadership and that the Wrs adjusted at times on his throws.If he stays and wins and the stats are better with better performance in the Big Game and plays like a Senior should he could move up to 2nd possibly 1st round in 2014.

I don't think bray has shown a propensity for wise choices in his career. Staying another year would be uncharacteristically mature of him. I think he's got stars in his eyes. I'm still holding out hope, but it doesn't seem likely.

But how well does Bray fit into CBJ's system...mobility concern? Saw a number of comments on how Peterman may be a better fit...just throwing it out there for some debate.

Valid point. Still arm talent is arm talent and I doubt CBJ is pushing this either way. On the one hand you've got the single season record holder who might return with enough prodding, and on the other hand do you really want to be the coach who sat that guy for a freshman? (Even if it is for the sake of your system) fans are fans and early questions don't bode well for coaches at this level
