The 2015 NFL Draft has come and gone and zero members of the Tennessee Volunteers football team heard their names called. While that is unfortunate for Butch Jones’ program, there is some good news.
Well, if you believe Peyton Manning.
While speaking with Jones, Manning provided a quality endorsement for the team’s current roster, saying there is NFL talent currently on the team.
Peyton Manning told Butch Jones when he was in for the spring game that he was starting to see legit "Sunday bodies" again on Vols' roster.

Butch Jones has to loving hearing that from Manning.
Even better for Jones is that he has a very young team, so the Vols can only continue to get better in the next few years. Jones just has to hope that the NFL talent Manning spotted stays with the team and doesn’t end up leaving for the NFL early.
