Clelin Ferrell NFL Draft 2019: Scouting Report for Oakland Raiders' Pick

STRENGTHS

—Standout three-year starter who at times overshadowed the other Clemson defensive linemen, who will all be drafted in the 2019 class; two others are expected to be first-rounders.

—Big (6'4", 264 lbs), long (34u215b-inch arms), powerful 4-3 defensive end with a nonstop motor and excellent aggression and urgency off the ball.

—Team captain who played his best games in the biggest moments and has ice water in his veins. Dominated against Alabama and in his College Football Playoff contests.

—Smart player who makes quick reads and will jam a tight end, set an anchor in the run game or explode off the line and get into the backfield; has awesome length and uses it well in three phases of the game.
