6. KENNY CLARK | UCLA 6025|314 lbs|3JR San Bernardino, Calif. (Carter) 10/4/1995 (age 20) #97
YEAR (GP/GS) TKLS TFL SACK FF GRADE 1st-2nd Round 2013: (13/4) 31 4.0 1.0 1 MEASUREABLES Arm: 32 1/8 | Hand: 10 1/2 | Wingspan: 79 2014: (13/13) 58 5.5 0.0 0 COMBINE 40-YD: 5.06 | 10-YD: 1.72 | 20-YD: 2.90 | BP: 29 | VJ: 28.5 | BJ: 08’06” | SS: 4.62 2015: (13/13) 75 11.0 6.0 0 PRO DAY N/A (positional drills only) Total: (39/30) 164 20.5 7.0 1
BACKGROUND: A four-star defensive tackle recruit out of high school, Kenneth “Kenny” Clark received offers from almost every West Coast program, committing to UCLA – also won a heavyweight division wrestling title in high school. He worked his way into the starting line-up as a true freshman (four starts), recording 31 tackles, 4.0 tackles for loss and 1.0 sack. Clark started all 13 games as a sophomore in 2014, finishing with 58 tackles and 5.5 tackles for loss, earning Second Team AllPac 12 honors. He again started all 13 games as a junior in 2015 and finished second on the team with 75 tackles, setting career-highs in tackles for loss (11.0) and sacks (6.0) to earn First Team All-Pac 12 honors. Clark elected to forego his senior season and enter the 2016 NFL Draft.
STRENGTHS: Plays with low hips, leverage and several wrestling maneuvers that translate from the mat to the football field…flexible athlete with body control and redirection skills to pursue and break down in short spaces…strong upper body with a powerful rip-and-club move to swat at the point of attack…initial quickness off the snap to stack-and-shed the initial blocks, drive his feet and break through the line of scrimmage…understands hand placement and works hard to gain inside positioning – quick punch, shooting his reach to engage blockers…balanced feet through congestion with range to make stops away from the line of scrimmage…quick to recognize screens and make plays in pursuit – impressive tackle total as a junior, finishing second on the team with 75 stops…maintains technique and backfield vision through contact to generate movement and attract double-teams…aggressive demeanor and determined individual…excellent work habits and treats practice like a game – well respected team captain, who is more mature than his age suggests (father went to prison when Kenny was nine years old, taking on a ‘man of the house’ role)…experience on offense in red zone situations as a lead blocker and tight end – three-yard touchdown reception in the 2015 season opener.
WEAKNESSES: Lacks elite size and growth potential for the position with only average length…tends to stop his feet at the point of attack, relying on his upper body to shed blocks – caught up hand-fighting…inconsistent locating skills with a bad habit of ducking his head at contact – late to plays outside the hashes, lacking closing burst to finish…moved from his spot and beat by angle blocks, cutting him off from run lanes…struggles to string together moves as a pass rusher…doesn’t come off the field much, which will cause him to take plays off, loafing at times when the play isn’t run at him.
SUMMARY: A two-year starter, Clark lined up primarily as a nose tackle and one-technique in UCLA’s 4-3 base defense, often in a frog stance with both hands in the dirt – was a high school wrestling champ and translates a lot of those techniques to the football field. He is powerful at the point of attack to overwhelm blockers and re-establish the line of scrimmage, shutting down the middle of the field vs. the run – a lot of “almost” plays, beating blockers, but just a step away from the ballcarrier. While still developing his pass rush catalogue, Clark flashes the violence, agility and motor to twist and drive blockers backwards, projecting as a threedown interior lineman in an even or odd front, similar to San Diego Chargers defensive lineman Corey Liuget – stout run defender with potential to be more, deserving of top-35 consideration.

Quote:
Kenny Clark
School: UCLA
Position: DT
Positive: Two-year starter awarded All-America and all-Conference honors as a junior after 75 tackles, 11 tackles for loss and 6 sacks. Athletic and explosive defensive line prospect with potential in a variety of systems. Plays with proper knee bend and pad level and consistently gets leverage on opponents. Keeps his feet moving, displays power in his lower body and the ability to bull rush opponents off the line. Shows tremendous quickness in his game, easily changes direction and has the ability to make tackles in the open field. Competes, finds ways to get off blocks and makes plays behind the line of scrimmage.
Negative: Despite his statistics not a sure handed tackler. More of a straight-line pass rusher and not effective if asked to twist or stunt.
Analysis: Clark is a smart, tough defensive line prospect with a large upside. He offers possibilities at defensive tackle on the interior of a four-man line and can even play defensive end in certain two gap systems. I would expect him to move into a starting lineup by the end of his rookie season.
Lol!
He's a lunch pail TT pick.
Shit. That blows the over/under. Gonna be more like 15.5
Took the closest Raji clone. Man, need pick. I hate it, even as I hope he is worth it.
a guy we probably could have gotten a little later
like usual
Ninth first round pick in last 11 drafts. Keep flinging shit on the wall TT, something has to stick.
Fucktard; thanksted.............LOL....IMO....this dude is about the same as 5 other guys at he same position.
HEY, I THINK I WON 10,000
I guess losing Raji really rattled their cages. Guessing that longer deal was not a smokescreen from BJ.
This makes me happier than you can ever know.

I talked to Clark at the Combine about his wrestling background. Him and Mike Daniels have that in common. Said Daniels is a favorite.
lol, the team in front of us trades down and the team behind us trades down
and we reach
DAMMIT
DID SOMEBODY ELSE JUST TRADE UP ???????????????????????
I like Clark... but wanted Billings. Think Billings solves a problem, whereas Clark is more of what we already have.
From FoxSports:
One of the younger players available in the draft at 20 years old, Clark has the unique ability to dominate at times from the DT spot. He was a wrestler in high school and that type of leverage knowledge shows up on a regular basis in tight spaces. He has to get better as a pass rusher, but that is mostly technique-oriented, which should come with time, because remember he won't be 21 until this fall. His potential is endless and I am more bullish on him than others. -- Joel Klatt
3. JOSHUA GARNETT | Stanford 6043|312 lbs|4SR Puyallup, Wash. (Puyallup) 2/21/1994 (age 22) #51
YEAR (GP/GS) GRADE 2nd-3rd Round 2012: (14/1) 1 LG MEASUREABLES Arm: 33 7/8 | Hand: 10 1/8 | Wingspan: 81 7/8 2013: (13/4) 1 LG, 3 UB COMBINE 40-YD: 5.32 | 10-YD: 1.84 | 20-YD: 3.05 | BP: 30 | VJ: 29 | BJ: 08’03” | SS: 4.64 | 3C: 7.62 2014: (13/13 12 LG, 1 UB PRO DAY N/A (positional drills only) 2015: (14/14) 14 LG Total: (54/32) 28 LG, 4 UB
BACKGROUND: A four-star offensive guard recruit out of high school, Joshua “Josh” Garnett was wooed by dozens of top programs and eventually narrowed down his choice to Stanford and Michigan, choosing the Cardinal. He began as a back-up in 2012 and started one game, becoming the first true freshman lineman to start at Stanford since 2000. Garnett started four games as a sophomore in 2013 before becoming a full-time starter at left guard in 2014. He started all 14 games as a senior in 2015 and racked up the accolades as a unanimous All-American and First Team All-Pac 12 performer. Garnett became the first player in school history to win the Outland Trophy, also taking home the Morris Trophy as the Pac-12’s top offensive lineman. He accepted his invitation to the 2016 Senior Bowl.
STRENGTHS: Proportionate body thickness with long arms and a stout core…country strong, heavy jabs and able to match power with power…shock absorbers for hands with the aggressiveness to halt and control momentum at the point of attack…quick off the snap and rarely surprised…rolls his hips at contact to overwhelm and drive his target from the spot…turns his body to wall off run lanes and shield defenders from the ball…active puller with the coordination to advance downfield and convert to a second-level blocker…mean-spirited and sets the tempo on the field…high football aptitude with the requisite mental alertness…well-spoken ambassador of the program with the desired intangibles in or away from the building – plans to attend medical school to be a surgeon after his playing days…NFL bloodlines – father (Scott) was an eighth round pick in the 1984 NFL Draft, playing four seasons in the NFL on the defensive line…durable and coachable starter with 32 starts on his collegiate résumé.
WEAKNESSES: Not a light mover and shows tightness in short spaces…needs to stay balanced in space, allowing his upper half to overextend past his feet…not an explosive player at the point of attack…overeager blocking appetite, leading to whiffs, and needs to add more patience to his diet…too much of a waist bender and needs to use consistent sink with his joints…struggles to re-anchor once he loses initial leverage – Oregon’s DeForest Buckner exposed this on several reps…hand placement needs fine-tuning, landing his punches outside…susceptible to quickness in pass protection, relying too much on his reach and not bringing his feet with him…lacks starting experience at center or right guard.
SUMMARY: A two-year starter at Stanford, Garnett was a consistent force at left guard and the heartbeat of one of the steadiest offensive lines at the college level the past few seasons. He does an adequate job in pass protection, but his bread-and-butter is his run blocking, using heavy hands and finishing instincts to win the point of attack. Although he’s not the best-conditioned lineman, Garnett has just enough athleticism for the position, relying on his mechanics, coaching and brute power to win snaps. He won’t dominate at the NFL level like he did in the Pac-12, but the skill-set and intelligence are there for him to be a dependable starter at the next level, ideally suited for a power scheme.
This about sums up Ted's pick:
