I have not heard the comparison ,but they seem a lot alike.
Especially being able to catch the football.

Way less burst. More like Dalton Hilliard.

no not really.

Clyde is taller, heavier, and more physical.
Strokes was shiftier and a lot faster.

Clyde is much stronger after contact. Sproles was quicker. The spin moves by Clyde are sick.

it was said by one of the tv people during the game. I don't agree with it though. Clyde is more power and Sproles more agility.

Not like Dalton except for the low center of gravity power. Clyde is a lateral cutter; Dalton was a one cut guy. Dalton could not move laterally like Clyde, but he could plant and cut like nobody I’ve seen.

don’t know what Spoles 40 time is/was, but he ran away from people.
Clyde doesn’t really have that type of speed.

He doesn't remind me of Sproles, really. Sproles was faster, and Clyde is much more physical.

He reminds me of Mark Ingram, with actual moves. His spin move is unparalleled.

Different kind of player....more of a power back than Darren. Both are good players
