RT: 1. Chance Hall 2. Marcus Tatum
Thoughts: Good luck figuring this group out. Tennessee has plenty of experience. How will the Vols piece it all together, however? That’s the question after an up-and-down 2016 season. Richmond, Kendrick and Hall are the primary options at tackle. But Smith, who can play multiple positions, could be a factor. Robertson, Jones and Boulware all have starting experience at guard, while Thomas, who can play all five positions, might settle back in at center in 2017 after the departure of Dylan Wiesman. Second-year players Johnson, Tatum, Nathan Niehaus and converted tight end Devante Brooks will look to contribute as well.
