Klubnik can make plays with his legs. The speed and rushing ability show up immediately. Klubnik has a good feel for setting up defenders in the open field and following his blocks. If he can secure a starting job in the NFL, I wouldn't be shocked if he churns out 400-500 rushing yards yearly. He has an easy delivery with compact mechanics, a quick release, the ability to throw from multiple arm angles, and the arm strength to make every NFL throw. When Klubnik is dialed in, he can put some pretty throws on film. He can layer the ball nicely to the second-level. His deep ball is quite good, but at times, he needs to put some more air under it to allow his receivers to adjust and run under these deep targets. Klubnik has plenty of reps as an anticipatory passer, especially with sideline comeback routes. Klubnik will attempt some ill-advised throws at times with multiple defenders in the vicinity of his target, but he has the arm talent to pull them off. Yes, the results could be disastrous, but he has the arm talent to pull it out with nice touch, layering, and sick ball placement. This could easily burn him in the NFL until he has a good grasp on the aggressiveness knob. From 2024 to 2025, Clemson put more on his plate. In 2024, Klubnik operated with a heavy diet of first read, checkdown, or utilize your legs play designs. In 2025, he was tasked with half and full field reads, and the results were uneven. At times, Klubnik would operate with good pace and move from his first to second read and so forth, but there were also plenty of plays where he would lock on his first read for too long or move off it too quickly. His trigger is inconsistent. His field vision can be erratic at times, where he's simply not seeing options running wide open. There are plenty of plays in 2025 where he operates at a high level to think that he can eventually even this all out, but it's a projection, and there's uncertainty with this part of his game, especially when transitioning to the NFL, where things will be faster and more complex on a number of levels. Klubnik has solid pocket presence. He'll stand tall versus the rush and deliver accurate passes. Klubnik can be cool and collected, delivering accurate passes from collapsing pockets. There are also a number of times where he'll hold the ball for too long as he's big play hunting or locked onto one option, but he also has some nice off-script moments. His accuracy doesn't suffer much from throwing on the move. If Klubnik can put it all together, he has the raw talent to develop into a league-average or above-average starter.
