The Panthers have picked CB Robert McClain with the 249th overall pick (7th round) of the NFL Draft.  He is a tad small at 5’9″, 193 pounds and he is not the fastest guy around running a 4.58 40.  But, he is aggressive in run support and he is a good punt returner which are qualities that likely caught the Panthers’ eye.  He had 56 tackles, 1 sack, he forced 1 fumble and he had 4 interceptions last season for U. Conn.  He also returned 26 punts for 265 yards (10.2 avg) with 1 TD return last season.  In his four years at U.Conn. McClain had 120 tackles, 1 sack, 1 forced fumble and he intercepted 10 passes (2 returned for TDs).
