Seven rounds of the NFL draft came and went this weekend without Tennessee defensive back Jonathan Hefney or offensive lineman Eric Young hearing their names called.
Those two players, expected by many to be among the 252 players selected, likely will sign as free agents.
Injury likely played a factor for Young, who started UT's first eight games in 2007 at left tackle before suffering a season-ending knee injury against South Carolina.
Hefney, meanwhile, started 50 consecutive games for the Vols. He, according to his agent, Jason Chayut, signed a free-agent contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night.
