Tyler Bray Turning Pro

[STEPHONGILMOREFAN!]

I wouldn't mind the falcons draftin him to be the back up

With the offensive line he had even an average qb would have looked good.

I just hope for his sake he takes the NFL much more seriously than he did college, because he could be a solid starting NFL QB IMO if he gets his head right.

That's a great post!

His targets are leaving, and if he has to learn a new offense he might as well do it in the NFL.

Not to knock UT, but the situation there with Dooley has been unstable the last few years and that hasn't helped Bray who seems to need discipline and stability. He's got NFL skills.

Will be an interesting guy to watch. Could definitely see some team falling in love with him and taking him in the 2nd round. Or could see everyone cooling on him and someone getting a low risk/high upside pick in the 5th. Certainly has all the physical tools to be an elite NFL QB. Starting to think he's pretty similar to Matt Stafford, at least on the field. Everything you could want physically in a QB with size and arm strength, but inconsistent mechanics and penchant for making a few too many risky throws.

I am not sorry to see him go. Dude can sling it with the best of them but without a stout O line I think he's going to struggle. Will be interesting to see if UT transforms into a primarily running offense.

Agreed...hope Jay Graham can land the #1 RB in the nation Derrick Green. He is down to us and Michigan. Very similar running style to Marcus, would really help that transition next year.

I think it is safe to say 2013 will be the roughest year in a long time and with the graduation on the Oline after next year 2014 could be tough too.

It is all about recruiting for Butch at this point...he has to get talent to TN so we can start competing with the top of the conference in a couple years.

I would love to see us play above our talent level for once...something I have admired about SC under Spurrier the past few years...you all consistently are beating teams that are more talented than you. But due to consistent quality coaching and a team oriented program, you are getting great results. One upset win next year would be huge for our program.

Once he hears that, Bray may decide to come back to UT.
