Expert Analysis
Cory Lemer | Prep Redzone Scout
Background: Hailing from Sewanhaka, the 2028 prospect ranks in the top three of the WR position and third on our list. He has elite versatility, and displays the ability to make an impact all over the offense, with reps at WR, and RB.
Measurables: Standing at 6’2″ 190-Pounds, Clanton shows a good build and a good frame for the WR position. If he continues to grow he should fill out his frame but otherwise he is the perfect size for a WR.
Evaluation: Clanton is a true ball catcher, and can make tough plays look easy. Through contact, he can hold onto the ball, and come down with big catches, showcasing good physicality at the POA. Multiple different routes are highlighted on his film, and I like his versatility. I do want to see him gain more separation as a pass catcher, to allow him more opportunities after the catch. As a ball carrier, he showcases good vision, and moves well downhill. He can reach his top speed quickly, and uses good footwork to avoid tackles. Overall Clanton is a unicorn prospect who can play across the offense.

is a human highlight at the receiver position that has the vertical presence to get down the field and cause matchup nightmares. Undoubtedly, the ability to catch the football away from his body while moving was a major strength. Clanton has big-time size and uses it effectively to outjump defensive backs in contested-catch situations. Defenses struggled with his late hands on deep balls, as well as his ability to turn catches into large gains. In essence, Clanton pairs solid acceleration with impressive contact balance, making him dangerous in space. Finding opening space and working back to his QB would flash. Ending the year lining up in a variety of spots on the outside and inside, including RB, highlighting his overall talent level.

that can do a variety of work for the offense. Moreover, that ability to be physical at the point of the catch flashed. All things considered, for Clanton’s size, he moves especially strong in space. Not only did he line up at WR, but taking snaps at RB showed his brute strength as a north-south runner. The strides that he has are long, which allows him to gain an abundance of yardage through the ground game when a lane presents itself. Regardless, on tape, snaps were thrown at OLB, where the ability to contain and make an impact was presented.
