Clemson football: PFF has a Tiger at every position on All-ACC team

The Clemson football team is considered the heavy favorite to win yet another ACC Championship during the 2021 season.

The Tigers are currently on a streak of six-straight in the conference and they’ve go on to compete in six-straight CFB Playoffs and have won two National Championships as a result.

As we head closer to the fall and the much-anticipated game against the Georgia Bulldogs, Pro Football Focus has released its preseason All-ACC team.

Well, besides special teams.

PFF Offensive Preseason All-ACC Clemson football selections:

• QB DJ Uiagalelei (third-team)
• RB Lyn-J Dixon (second-team)
• WR Justyn Ross (first-team)
• WR Joseph Ngata (honorable mention)
• TE Davis Allen (third-team)
• OT Jordan McFadden (first-team)
• IOL Matt Bockhorst (honorable mention)
• IOL Will Putnam (honorable mention)

On the offensive side, Clemson has at least an honorable mention at every single position and the Tigers have two players- Justyn Ross and Jordan McFadden- listed as first-teamers on the all-conference team.

D.J. Uiagalelei, who only started two games last season, is already considered the third-team all-conference quarterback and we all know he could very well take the stride up the ladder before it’s all said and done this season.

PFF Defensive Preseason All-ACC Clemson football selections:

• IDL Bryan Bresee (first-team)
• IDL Tyler Davis (third-team)
• EDGE Myles Murphy (first-team)
• LB Baylon Spector (third-team)
• LB James Skalski (first-team)
• S Nolan Turner (first-team)
• CB Andrew Booth Jr. (first-team ‘Flex D’)

Technically Andrew Booth Jr. isn’t listed as one of the starting cornerbacks, but he is a first-teamer still as a cornerback as the ‘flex defender’ on the All-ACC team. The Tigers have four other first-teamers listed on the defensive side of the ball and then two third-teamers.

We can’t help but point out the fact that Tyler Davis is vastly underrated. He doesn’t put up the eyepopping stats, but there was a noticeable difference in the Tigers’ interior production last season when he went out. He brings a lot to the table and there’s a reason that NFL scouts are noticing him.

On special teams, Clemson kicker BT Potter is listed as the second-string.
