Scouting Report

July 29, 2026

DJ McClary #13

Rutgers · LB · So · 2028 Draft · Jersey City, N.J. · Henry Snyder

6-1 · 230 lbs

3.6

Long Shot

Floor 2.3 · Ceiling 8.2

#4761 overall · #545 LB of 15102

Scouting Verdict

Blue-chip (4★, No. 413 overall) unproven sophomore LB; no college production on record yet, so the current grade is youth-appropriate — the upside is carried in the ceiling.

Ceiling · 8.2

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+4.6) · LB lower-value.

Floor · 2.3

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.3.

Pedigree

4★ recruit · Natl #413 · Pos #45 · State #11
