The Tennessee Volunteers may not have any players drafted during the first two days of the 2019 NFL Draft, and maybe no draftees at all.

However, the Vols are slowly rebuilding their program under head coach Jeremy Pruitt, who will enter his second year at the helm in 2019.

On Tuesday, ESPN draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. spoke about the Vols, saying he thinks the incoming Tennessee recruiting class is going to provide a lot of NFL talent:

The 2019 Tennessee signing class included two 5-star players (OL Wanya Morris and Darnell Wright) and 11 4-star commitments, per the 247Sports composite.

Per the 247Sports rankings, the Tennessee 2019 class ranked No. 12 in the nation and No. 7 in the SEC. Will Kiper be proven right? We’ll find out in three years.
