Scouting Report: Strengths

- Has the functional strength to hold up against the bull rush, and he shows exceptionally quick and precise hands.
- Plays with natural leverage and has the strength to anchor against the bull rush. McClendon also packs a violent initial punch that can stand up pass rushers.
- Shows excellent awareness against twists and stunts, and he has the strong, flexible core and wide base to catch and handle moving defenders.
- As a pass protector, he plays with good balance and holds up against the bull rush. McClendon has strong hands and does a nice job gripping and latching on once he has his hands on the pass rusher.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- He’s a little shaky as a pass protector, which is troublesome for the next level. McClendon often plays too high with an inconsistent kick slide.
- Has fairly heavy feet, struggling to mirror against quicker defenders. McClendon lacks the range to get out as an effective puller, and McClendon can often look stiff when moving out into space and zeroing in on bodies.

- Loses leverage battles and plays with high pad level. Can be late off the snap.
