Reaves lands record $185M Lakers deal, redefining undrafted contracts

Austin Reaves signs a four-year, $185 million max contract with the Lakers, including a final-season player option, making him the highest-paid undrafted free agent in NBA history. The deal uses cap mechanics that leave the Lakers with roughly $48 million in space this offseason and a ~$21 million cap hold until signing, so it won’t derail their plans but tightens long-term flexibility and reshapes the guard market for other teams.

Ravens Give Undrafted QB Diego Pavia a Real Shot at Mini-Camp

Baltimore invited undrafted quarterback Diego Pavia to rookie minicamp to earn a roster spot and will evaluate him against Joe Fagnano, with coach Jesse Minter saying, “show us what you can do.” Pavia, a two-year New Mexico State star who transferred to Vanderbilt and became the Commodores’ first Heisman finalist, is entering a competition the Ravens could carry three to five quarterbacks for, while also weighing veteran options (e.g., Heinicke, Tune, Dobbs) that could affect the outcome. The team is also sorting through roster questions at center and other spots as it heads toward training camp.

Bears Target Veteran Edge Rusher Snowden After Raiders Move on

The Chicago Bears could claim Charles Snowden, a former UDFA edge rusher who spent 2024–25 with the Raiders, after Las Vegas waived him. Snowden has shown pass-rush ability and versatility (including occasional inside rushing) and could add veteran depth and competition for Chicago’s edge group as the team assesses Dayo Odeyingbo and Shemar Turner this offseason.

Undrafted Heisman finalist Pavia seeks a path to the Ravens' QB room

Diego Pavia, Vanderbilt star and Heisman runner-up, joined the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent and participated in rookie minicamp as a potential third quarterback behind Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley. At 5-foot-10 and 24 years old, questions remain about his NFL prospects, but Ravens coach Jesse Minter says the team will let him prove himself; with a non-guaranteed three-year contract and uncertainty about roster spots, a veteran QB could still be added, and the camp will be a key early barometer.
