Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’s capable as a receiver, a weapon on swing passes and in the screen game.
- McClellan has the flexible ankles to turn the corner and get around the perimeter when the opportunity presents itself.
- Has sneaky speed but won't always get to the corner. Runs low through the hole with size and strength to move the chains as an interior runner. Has a strong stiff-arm and spin move to slip defenders. Best in goal-line situations finds another level of determination. Good recognition as a runner and pass blocker. Natural receiver with versatility as a route-runner.
- He keeps his pads low and consistently falls forward. Unlike most backs his size, McClellan has the lateral movement and stop-start ability to make defenders whiff. He has breakaway speed in the open field.
- His initial burst is excellent, and he’s capable of running out of a traditional setup or taking the ball lined up next to a quarterback in shotgun.
- McClellan has very good vision and a knack for picking out cut-back lanes and then breaking offchunks of yardage.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- His playing speed is less than elite. McClellan won’t run past defenders like McClellan did at the college level.
- Too indecisive and hesitant at the line of scrimmage.
- He’s more of a cut blocker in pass protection as opposed to a guy who will stick his face in against the blitz, although that is a correctable flaw.
