Corey Clark has been a mainstay on the Aggies' offensive line at strong-side offensive tackle during the last three seasons, having taken over that position from former All-Big Twelve Conference choice, Geoff Hangartner.

Clark's drive-blocking skills helped the team's ground attack had great success, averaging 234.9 yards per game in 2005, 206.8 yards in '06 and 211.6 yards in '07.

At Smithson Valley High School, Clark earned first-team Super Team honors from Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine, as he helped lead the team to the Class 5A state championship game. He was an All-District, All-Area and All-State selection by the Texas Sports Writers Association and a consensus Texas Top 100 recruit. He was also chosen to play in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio.

Clark redshirted in 2003 at Texas A&M. He appeared in four games behind Geoff Hangartner at strong-side offensive tackle in 2004, seeing his most action vs. Tennessee in the Cotton Bowl when Hangartner was injured.

In 2005, Clark took over strong-side tackle chores, going on to start his final 37 games at that position. He delivered 52 knockdowns with five touchdown-resulting blocks, helping the offense average 442.3 yards per game, a figure that ranks second on the school's season-record list.

Clark earned All-Big Twelve Conference honorable mention in 2006. He posted 54 knockdowns, opening holes for six touchdown runs. The front wall allowed only 19 quarterback sacks on 330 pass plays. The Aggies' offense averaged 397.4 yards per game, as the running attack produced 32 of that unit's 45 touchdowns.

As a senior, Clark garnered second-team All-Big Twelve Conference accolades. He gave up just two sacks on 376 pass plays, registering 70 knockdowns, along with eight touchdown resulting blocks. The Aggies averaged 397.0 yards per game and saw their quarterbacks get sacked just 16 times for minus-120 yards.

Positives: Has adequate muscle definition, but possesses large hands and well-proportioned thighs and calves … Works hard to sustain, but needs to develop a more aggressive nature … Has good timed speed, but is inconsistent using it on the playing field … Alert and competes hard and until the whistle … Plays with good urgency and has the vision to pick up the blitz … Lacks ideal arm length, but shuffles his feet in pass protection to mirror … Has the short-area burst to come off the snap and gain advantage, but would sustain better with proper hand placement … Has just adequate quickness to block in the second level and is really not a physical striker, but he works himself into position to wall off the defender and if he can improve his hip sink would generate better pop on contact … Takes good angles to get at second-level defenders and while he is more of a position blocker, he does settle for stalemates … Needs to unload on targets better on the move, but shows no hesitation on short-area pulls (just needs to be more consistent with his body control) … Adjusts to inside pressure well and even though he is more of a waist bender, he works well in combination with his guards and tight ends in sustaining and widening the rush lanes … Can slide his feet and mirror movement in pass protection when he keeps his pads down … Has room on his frame to add more bulk … Shows enough quickness to neutralize edge rushers (better on the right than on the left side) … Short-arms too much on passing plays, but does have decent extension pushing off defenders on run plays.

Negatives: On film, his athletic ability doesn't match his rare timed speed, as he looks sluggish coming out of his stance and struggles to adjust to movement in space … Has adequate initial lateral movement, but is inconsistent redirecting … Show adequate balance and base, but needs to generate better flexibility and avoid waist-bending … Displays marginal ability to adjust to blocks in space and is more of a finesse type, lacking a physical strike when shooting his hands at the point of attack … Would rather position himself to wall off the defender and mirror than maul the opponent, as he fails to generate explosive pop on contact … Has decent in-line blocking skills, but is too slow in his stride trying to get to the second level and on the move … Can slide his feet to mirror, but must stay lower in his pads when redirecting (slow to adjust) … Lacks explosion as a drive blocker and struggles to adjust and sustain in space … Moves well to get to his opponent when pulling or trapping, but lacks an explosive strike to knock defenders around … Has the functional playing speed to get to the second level, but has marginal ability to adjust … Shows poor hand placement and punch in pass protection, but has decent slide moving his feet in his kick-step … More of a grabber and body leaner rather than a blocker who extends his arms and gets good hand placement in attempts to sustain … Catches his opponent too much rather than punching, which leads to holding penalties … Needs to play with better aggression … Must be more alert to defensive schemes, as he does bite on movement before the snap, getting lots of false start calls.

Compares To: ANTHONY ALABI-Kansas City … Like Alabi, Clark will need a steady yet patient coach. Clark is more of a leaner at this stage and needs to gain confidence in his hand placement and punch. He is not strong enough to handle the strong side and must improve his lateral range to be effective isolated edge rushers on the weak side. With his ability to adjust to the blitz and set low in pass protection, there is enough potential here to warrant a late-round look.
