Western Michigan’s Zach Vaughan brings veteran size, smart depth, and pro-day polish up front
Zach Vaughan enters 2026 as a seasoned 6-foot-5, 316-pound offensive lineman for Western Michigan, with experience at Wake Forest and recognition as a 2026 National Football Foundation Hampshire Honor Society honoree. He’s the kind of glue piece coaches love: older, battle-tested, academically steady, and already trusted enough to draw pro-day attention from NFL and CFL scouts. The upside isn’t flashy stats — linemen rarely get those — but his value is in maturity, depth, and enough length/strength to help stabilize the line if he wins a starting role.
