Dayday Aupiu is a long, athletic Cal DB with developing playmaking upside
In the 2025 season, Dayday Aupiu appeared in all 13 games for Cal and recorded his lone tackle against Stanford, but the bigger story is his profile: a 6'2" defensive back with legit speed, acceleration and zone coverage traits that show upside beyond the box score. EA Sports lists him with strong athletic marks and a 69 overall, while his high-school tape featured explosive ball skills, including two pick-sixes in a season opener. He looks like a developmental fit for a defense that values length, range and special-teams value.
