DJ Wade DJ Wade 6'2" | 170 lbs | QB Carver Montgomery | 2026 State AL is a talented QB out of Carver who has helped his offense in a ton of big ways over the last few years.
Wade is a gunslinger who can put the ball anywhere on the field. He has a big arm, throws with great accuracy, and is a good decision maker who can push the ball downfield for massive plays.
I was really impressed by Wade’s ability to navigate the pocket and make plays under pressure. He plays with a ton of confidence and can deliver the ball to his WRs through contact, while also having the ability to take the ball upfield himself if he has to.
Check out Wade’s tape from last season, he’s a talented player with a big year ahead:
