Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia is representing himself in the 2026 NFL Draft, a rare move that could potentially harm his chances of being drafted.

Diego Pavia, the Vanderbilt quarterback, has chosen to represent himself in the 2026 NFL Draft. He made this decision because he successfully negotiated his return to Vanderbilt without an agent. However, experts think this move could hurt his chances. Pavia is not considered a top-100 pick and is likely to be drafted on Day 3. Without an agent, he may not get the attention he needs from NFL teams. This decision is similar to Shedeur Sanders', who also didn't sign with an agent and fell to the fifth round in the 2025 NFL Draft. Pavia had a successful senior season, throwing 29 touchdowns and earning Heisman runner-up honors.
