Comment:
Clements has great size and excellent foot speed and acceleration. He stays low in his backpedal and wastes very little motion when he flips his hips to turn and run. He can run with most receivers and, at his size, rarely is in a mismatch. He does an excellent job with the jam and is at his best in press man-to-man coverage. He excels at getting his hands on receivers and rerouting them off the line of scrimmage. He has great upper-body strength and is aggressive with blockers. He doesn't waste time with anyone trying to screen him from the play. He has excellent body control, change-of-direction skills and burst to the ball. He has outstanding top-end speed and can make up for mistakes in coverage. He has very good leaping ability and ball skills. He judges the ball extremely well in the air. He is a threat on punt returns or interception runbacks. He goes hard to the ball, always seems to be around the play and is a very aggressive tackler. He generally takes good pursuit angles but has mental lapses now and then. He gambles too much and will get caught playing off technique, looking into the backfield and getting beaten by a double move. He needs to improve his focus and concentration.
