The team recently brought in two prospects for pre-draft visits: Missouri's Chris McClellan and Cal's Aidan Keanaaina. McClellan shared a photo of his visit to the team's facility on his Instagram story, and Keanaaina's visit was reported by KUSA-TV's Mike Klis.
McClellan (6-4, 313 pounds) is a massive prospect who ran a 40-yard dash in 5.05 seconds and bench-pressed 225 pounds 25 times at the NFL combine. He totaled 48 tackles (eight behind the line), six sacks and two pass breakups in 13 games with the Tigers last fall. McClellan spent the final two years of his college career at Missouri following two seasons at Florida. NFL mock drafts have him projected as a fourth-round prospect.
Keanaaina (6-3, 320 pounds) is from Brighton, Colorado, and he played prep football at Mullen High School, so he's eligible to visit the team as a "local prospect" who does not count against the 30-visit limit. He spent four years at Notre Dame and two seasons at Cal, totaling 56 tackles and 1.5 sacks last season. Keanaaina is considered a late-round or undrafted free agent prospect.
Following the Jaylen Waddle trade, Denver holds seven picks in the 2026 NFL draft, which will be held in Pittsburgh from April 23-25.
