The pedal feels pretty soft and whenever I go to put it in reverse, it grinds and jumps a little. What do you guys think?

Sounds like the hydraulics are going out.

Does the car move with the clutch to the floor??

No, it still stays still.

If it is the hydraulics, will I still need to buy a whole new clutch. My car smells really bad too, from it.

Depends how bad the clutch is fried from slipping. If you can smell it, thats not a good sign at all.

If you're going to do all the work to replace the hydraulics though, might as well change the clutch while you have the transmission out.

I'd check the clutch fluid first, see if maybe its too low.

Where do I check the clutch fluid at? Do I have to get under the car to do it?

Ok, I went back out to move the car and the clutch seems to be a little more stiff than it was when I got home. And, it's not grinding when I put it in reverse anymore. It is really hard to put into reverse though.

Try bleeding the clutch and see what that does.

Yeah, give it a good bleed with new fluid and then see where you're at. Based on what you've told us, there are quite a few possibilities.
