DJ Law Attributes
Strengths
Speed: DJ is arguable one of the fastest receivers coming into the draft. During college DJ was a sprinter, and won many state championships. Law clocked in a 40-meter dash of 4.41 seconds, which is quite impressive. Through high school we saw DJ play a deep threat role in his most of his games. His speed is simply his biggest asset, and has played to it very well.
Vision: Now this will be something to track at the pro level, but during college DJ's vision was simply remarkable. They had a whole playbook set on hitch passes for DJ. DJ would have his route planned out even before the ball got to him, he could see gaps like no other.
Weakness:
Route Running: Now there is no denying DJ straight line speed, however some times he is not able to build up to that speed. It has been noted that DJ can struggle beating the defender off of the line, which can cause some problems in DJs game. Also route running to the inside of the field is an area of note for his pro coach and trainers. DJ can sometimes get lost while running across the middle of the field. Getting tangled up with fellow receivers, or simply not knowing when to hit the gap with speed.
Consistency: Now this is completely up to DJ to control. We have seen DJ go on real hot streaks, but then hit real cold streaks. DJ will have to find the internal motivation every game to keep improving and working his hardest. However, this does fall on the coach providing the right environment for the player, and giving him the proper chances. Right now having DJ sitting on the sidelines is not something I would be doing. I guess we will see how it plays out when DJ gets in his first game.
