02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Clark projects as an ideal fit for a 3-4 two-gap defense, where his size and strength can be leveraged to control multiple rushing lanes and absorb blocks, or as a powerful 4-3 nose tackle.

3-4 NT4-3 NT0-tech DT
Best role

He can immediately compete for starting snaps as a nose tackle, eventually anchoring the interior defensive line as a dominant run defender.

Wrong fit

A wide-9 attacking front that prioritizes pure pass rush over run stuffing and gap control would significantly diminish his value.

Clark's substantial frame and power make him a prime candidate for schemes emphasizing interior run defense and control at the point of attack.

04The evaluation

Selected #27 overall in Round 1 of the 2016 NFL Draft by Green Bay Packers out of UCLA.
