In Damon Whalen's first draft as GM of the Tennessee Militia he had to prove that he could help this team accumulate the talent it needed for long term success. For the time being it seems he has. The Solecismic Draft Review gave the Militia draft an A, listed only behind three teams.

The 6'5" 310 lb tackle may be the anchor piece of what is developing into one of the good young offensive lines in the league.

This 6'2" 244 lb linebacker was drafted to shore up the Militia run defense and add depth to the 3-4 linebacking corps in Tennessee

This smart quarterback with a penchant for running should provide a quality long term back up for Emmanuel Cole.

Jake Matthews should strengthen what is an average secondary at best. This is one of the reinforcements the defense had been waiting for last season.

Tennessee was excited to see this player still available in the fifth round. The team expects this 6'2" 290 lb center to play on this line for years to come.
Scouted 15/68

7.17 [player]Wayne Frost[/player] FS Temple

Frost was drafted to strengthen the pass defense. at 6' 213 lb he looks to unnerve quarterbacks all around the league.
