Scouting Report
Clemson · 2026 draft class
Adam Randall is a muscular downhill running back from Clemson who converted from wide receiver to running back and made the most of his first full season at the position producing more as a runner than he did in four years of receiving. At 6-2 and 235 pounds Randall has a powerful frame and runs hard getting north-south quickly with his shoulders squared at the line of scrimmage. Despite being a first-time running back he displays above-average patience following blocks to daylight on gap and pin-pull power schemes. His wide receiver background provides a pass-catching element and versatility that creates advantageous matchups out of the backfield. Randall is also a viable kick returner averaging 23.2 yards per kick return over his last two seasons and he played 82.1 percent of Clemson's offensive snaps the highest rate for any Power 4 running back. He excels in a downhill power scheme where he can use his size and strength to wear down defenses. However Randall lacks the reps at running back that show in his pass protection technique which does not play with the power his frame suggests. His history of dropped passes was one reason he transitioned from wide receiver and he is not a natural hands-catcher. His skill set is scheme-dependent as he does not display the stop-start ability needed for zone-heavy schemes. He lacks wiggle and elusiveness struggling to make defenders miss in tight spaces and create extra yards when blocking breaks down. Bleacher Report graded him 6.0 ranking him 179th overall and RB12 comparing him to Kalel Mullings.
