Film Notes and Highlights

Jase McClellan has had an up and down career at Alabama. He had to wait behind some talented running backs and had injuries that set back his playing time. When he is on the field he has shown good things, with a 5.6 yards per carry average over the course of his college career. I think one of the best things I saw on film was McClellan’s power running between the tackles and consistently getting extra yards. He also has the speed to get outside when there is nothing up the middle.

McClellan shows good patience for blocks, but at times can wait too long and miss a hole. He has average vision and it can be inconsistent. Sometimes he sees the cutback lanes and other times he just runs right up the middle. He is a capable receiver but not necessarily a difference maker on tape. McClellan definitely has tools to be a successful back in the NFL but I do not believe as a starter. -Brandon Haye
