Instant-impact recruit: Tennessee Volunteers

Let's not mince words here: Tennessee's offensive line wasn't the prettiest thing to look at in 2016.

The Vols didn't give up a ton of sacks (just 25 on the season) and Tennessee ranked in the middle of the SEC with just 72 tackles for loss given up. But there wasn't much continuity with a line that entered the season in flux and then dealt with injury after injury during the season.

So it isn't exactly a bold move to say the Vols need immediate help along the offensive line. More importantly, Tennessee needs immediate help at tackle.
