OT: Senior Bowl Week.2026

[Adrian]

Game is this weekend.

 

[Adrian]

Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia – 5-foot-9 7/8ths
Pavia was listed on the Vanderbilt roster at 6-f0ot. He is, upon further review, not. Only one quarterback has gone through the NFL Combine since 1999 that has been shorter than 5-foot-10, former Miami Hurricanes QB D’Eriq King. This is “outlier among outliers” territory for a size profile at quarterback, which is likely going to end up disqualifying him from a draftable grade from many teams ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft.

“Yeah, my size has been doubted my whole life,” Pavia said Monday. “I feel like the only thing the NFL cares about is can you win, and I view myself as a winner. I’ve been fortunate with all these great teams that I’ve had — we’ve never had a losing season. So that’s something to look forward to, I hope, for the rest of my career, that’s how it’s going to be.

On top of being an ungrateful DB, he's also short.

The transformation is staggering. At Houston, Nadame Tucker was a seldom-used defensive end who played just 13 games across three seasons, recording only 10 tackles. At Western Michigan in 2025, he was the MAC’s most dominant player and one of the most productive pass rushers in the entire country.

Zuhn is listed as an offensive tackle and while he is the third tallest tackle in the group, he is one of the lightest at that position. However, he would be one of the tallest and heaviest among the interior linemen.

Max is an interesting player.

I guess I should expand on this. He has great size, good athleticism, and was late to the sport. He is probably a 4th/5th rounder at this point but his ability to show growth could potentially drive him up. This is a good type of player to draft if you can teach and develop players.

btw: Jacob Rodriquez, LB Tex Tech is a player I would love in round 3.

It will be interesting to see how another defensive staff views the Cardinals defensive roster.

Caleb Banks, DT, Florida​

Caleb Banks could be the first defensive tackle taken next spring. But he’ll face questions about his durability after playing in just three games for Florida this past season due to a foot injury that ultimately required surgery. When healthy, Banks has the ideal combination of size, strength, and athleticism to handle life between the tackles in the NFL. Pad level will be something to watch, as will his continued recovery from the foot injury, but a strong week in Mobile could solidify his spot in the first round.

Hopefully our new HC and staff can do this

There was speculation that Simpson could be a late addition to the Senior Bowl after he submitted his paperwork to enter the draft, but Simpson will not be participating in the annual showcase from Mobile, Alabama and is instead focusing on training and preparing for the NFL Combine while also recovering from a rib injury he suffered in the Rose Bowl.

Despite the setbacks, expectations remain sky-high for the 6-foot-6-inch, 330-pound defender originally from Detroit. In fact, CBS Sports writer Josh Edwards expects Banks to "steal the show" this weekend.
