2024 Fantasy Outlook
Pavia broke out in 2024, delivering 2,293 passing yards, a 20:4 TD:INT, 801 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns in his first season in the SEC. He won a lawsuit against the NCAA for an additional year of eligibility and returns to Vanderbilt with high expectations. Pavia's top two targets from 2024 will run it back as well, with tight end Eli Stowers (49 catches, 638 yards) and Junior Sherrill (29 catches, 411 yards) leading the pass-catching crew. WR depth behind Sherill is shaky, but Pavia should have enough talent around him to keep up or exceed his 2024 totals. One player to keep an eye on to emerge in that room is Trent Hudson. Hudson played with Pavia at New Mexico State in 2023, and caught 36 passes for 551 yards and 10 touchdowns before riding the bench at Mississippi State last year. But even if Vanderbilt's air attack falters, Pavia's rushing ability keeps his fantasy floor high. He logged the sixth-most rushing yards of any SEC player in 2024 and tied for ninth in rushing touchdowns. Read Past Outlooks
Stellar effort in win
Pavia completed 18 of 28 passes for 268 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 45-24 victory over Tennessee. He also had 20 rushes for 165 yards with one touchdown.
ANALYSIS
The senior quarterback put up strong numbers through the air and on the ground, showing high-level dual-threat capability and taking control late. His rushing yards add a valuable dimension that many quarterbacks don't provide, making him a particularly high-ceiling fantasy asset when Vanderbilt controls the flow. If he stays healthy and the offense stays in rhythm, Pavia's upside remains very strong. He finished the regular season by completing 71.0 percent of his passes for 3,192 yards 27 touchdowns and eight interceptions while rushing the ball 152 times for 826 yards and four scores.
