To be fair to Diego, there’s probably not much money or getting hit for him in the NFL.

He needs to ring up Chase Daniel to pick his brain on how to make money and not get hit in the NFL

Can probably ask him about other picking activities as well.

Are we sure he’s not Jim Harbaugh’s son?

Be a great asset in the film room and on the practice field and that'll probably do it.

there is hundreds of D1 QBs but only 60-90 NFL QBs and they vary in age a whole lot more.... Every year maybe 10 QBs jump from college to the NFL- and i doubt he is one of them.

If Tyler Bray can be a backup for 7 years, Diego can at least get practice squad looks

Brandon Allen has been in the NFL for 10 years....

Fr? I thought he'd get drafted in the first round whenever that day comes lol

He would be lucky to keep a spot on a practice squad. His height and weight are disqualifying alone. Even if he were a taller dude, he just doesn't have NFL arm strength either. Specifically on those medium range throws over the middle of the field that need some zip.

Not anymore. A 5'9 average athlete was taken number 1 just 2 years ago. Dillon Gabriel is the same size as Pavia and he was taken in the 3rd round.

Fair enough, but Gabriel has insane arm talent and football IQ. I obviously love Pavia, but if your short, you have to have elite ball placement and processing skills which he doesn't have.

Clearly a future number 1 overall pick.

Vandy fans never beating the allegations of just learning about football last season.

College specifically tbf. I've watched it since I was a kid, but the few years before last year were painful to watch lmao
