Former NFL player analyzes "growing pains" with Uiagalelei leading Clemson offense

247Sports did a deep dive this week into Clemson starting quarterback DJ Uiagalelei's start as a passer through two games this season. The article cites a Pro Football Focus passer grade through the Georgia and SC State games that has the sophomore ranked 135th in the country (56.4). 247Sports talke Read Update »

Nothing he said was wrong.

He HAS TO STOP staring down receivers.

can't disagree with anything he said... for sure DJ isn't...

...thinking he's better than he is. He seems to have a great head on his shoulders. And I might disagree with him saying he isn't a natural passer. But the mechanics and the stare downs are a problem. My son (who plays wide receiver) even picked up on DJ's inability to look off receivers and lure the defense in... He has to get that fixed.

I was commenting how he had poor mechanics before he even played his first game just from HS film. I just figured it worked for him anyway. I thought it might come back to haunt him though and it did. He can fix that stuff though. He has to tighten up. He will learn.

Streeter. Hasn't had to fix anything with dw4 and TL. Both were ready out of high school. DJ had time for 1.5 years under maybe the best QB Clemson may ever have. These mechanics and having to learn should have been worked out.

so he went from the qb everyone wanted to not a natural passer? I don't think so

It's an assessment on TWO GAMES so a lot of what he said is plausible based on TWO GAMES. DJ will settle in and be just fine.

Do we have a GA with eligibility?

Not that it matters. DJ all the way to Indy.

DJ came in #1 QB


Sep 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

And he played very well last year in two starts - between Elliott and Streeter, he’s regressed this past year.

He can get it fixed … and Dabo needs to help figure out.

That was hard to hear, but admittedly accurate.***

So Steve Logan was the head coach at ECU when they were good and has coached QBs into the NFL and in the NFL.

and his comment about QB accuracy is they either have it or they don't.

"He can throw it through a brick wall" doesn't matter that much if the QB doesn't have the accuracy.

Not saying that's the case with DJ, but if you guys remember early in his career, Taj couldn't hit the back out in the flat.

A couple of years later, he was still missing those wide open swing passes half the time.
