Should I go to college or a semester-year of postgraduate school?

I play football, and I want a shot at going to the NFL, but the college I got into is Division III and it is virtualy impossible to go the the NFL from a Division III school. But the college I got into is the second best liberal arts school in the nation. If I go to a postgraduate school, I will be able to go to a Division I school, one that has great academics, and have a much greater chance of going to the NFL. I just don't know if I should go to one of the nations best colleges and risk not going to the NFL, or take a one semester-year off from my life to go to a postgraduate school. Because if I get hurt at the postgraduate school, not only will I say goodbe to a possible NFL career, but also to a prestigous education...WHAT SHOULD I DO

1. sorry can't help just believe in ur self good luck
2. What percentage of athletes make it to the NFL? Take the best education possible, and keep trying for the walk on.
3. Which would be better for you? I would very strongly recommend not going straight to post grad work after getting your BA or BS. If you go to the Division I school just for football, please contact the sports department to see if you are eligible. Maybe starting work on a second BA or BS degree would be your best option.
