Hey Tattoo. Canada is on the line. Buy a roadmap to Edmonton or Saskatchewan. Only place you’ll sniff pro football.

I don't think he's good enough to start in the CFL. The QB play is actually very good up there; not NFL level obviously. But if he thinks he could show up and tear up the CFL, he has a very rude awakening coming. He needs to ask his "mentor" Johnny Football about that, considering he tried to go up there and sucked.

Yeah CFL is not a prep league. Not NFL like you say, but not college either. I always enjoyed watching the games. Not a bad players for speedy receivers and gunslingers that are just a notch below NFL. You won't get big money up there. Last I saw, and maybe it's been a long time but most are paid bracketed wages pretty evenly and hold off season jobs and careers. They cap team salary around $6.5mil and the average is aorund $70K per season. Top earning QB's can average mid 6 figures. Top WR's around $230K. Would be interesting to know stats on NFL recruiting from CFL when they see talent there.

Vandy wasn't the only team to beat us in Neyland and Vandy wasn't Vandy of the past.
Banks should've been fired before last season. 2024 bought him an extra year instead of being fired

nothing that you said changes the truth of what I said.

Beatable doesn't mean it always occurs sir. Means going in opportunity is there.

I know what beatable means. I don't think he needed you taking up for him.
Last season the Vols were the beatable team and Vandy was the team to beat despite what many here wanted to think.
Hopefully that changes this season.
Good day to you sir, I say good day.🎩

That is a standard part of the NFL process. 98% of those 'contracts' are promptly cancelled once they use you as a tackling dummy for two-a-days.

Here are the other seven they signed to three-year 'Short Term' deals.

This. It's not really a 3 year deal, it's standard and part of the players union deal. It's basically a nice way of saying "he got invited to try out".

If the player remains on the active roster, UDFA contracts have a total value often exceeding $1.5 million. Considering that, Pavia’s going to get between $885,000 and $1,005,000, per NFL Operations. While the NFL rookie minimum base salary for the 2026 season is approximately $885,000

Yeah but if he had been humble and not a prick someone may have threw a pick late last round if for nothing more than to get some news cycles

I thought the same. Wasn’t Stetson Bennett drafted in the 4th round? Maybe he isn’t quite as good but if he didn’t have character issues somebody would’ve taken a chance

Do you know how hard it is to keep a Lilly pad straight and in order and now you ruffled it just after I got it back straight. 🧐🎩 all these dang emojis and none with monocle and top hat lol. Guess they scared of Mr Peanut.

Maybe they'll use him for that play Mike Leach wanted to do where he would throw a little person over the pile to get a first down. They could have Derrick Henry pick him up and launch him.

Thanks! We are adding to the mini-me camp playbook this weekend.

Derrick carries him on an option route. As the linebacker tackles D. Henry, he launches Diego forward with ball.

Y’all are cruel. But it would sell tickets. I’d pay to see some players throw that midget over the line.
