Analysis Summary
Diego Pavia, Vanderbilt's star quarterback and 2025 Heisman finalist, went undrafted in the 2026 NFL Draft. Pat McAfee publicly suggested on X that Pavia's size (5-foot-10) and unique playing style make him a perfect fit for the UFL rather than the NFL, praising those same traits as college assets that don't match NFL prototypes. Pavia has received invitations to NFL rookie camps including Baltimore's, so his immediate future isn't settled between UFL, NFL, or other professional options.
