Broncos traveled to meet with WR-turned-RB who could fall to sweet spot in NFL draft

The Denver Broncos met with at least eight running backs ahead of the 2026 NFL draft.

One of those meetings featured the team making a trip to Clemson to visit with Adam Randall, according to a report from KPRC-TV's Aaron Wilson. Randall (6-3, 232 pounds) ran a 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds and bench-pressed 225 pounds 26 times at the NFL combine earlier this offseason.

NFL.com's Lance Zierlein has Randall projected as a fourth or fifth-round pick, and that could be a sweet spot for Denver to add a running back. The Broncos hold a pair of selections in the fourth round (Nos. 108 and 111) and a fifth-round pick (No. 170) this spring. Denver's first pick is No. 62 overall in the second round, but it's hard to imagine that selection being used on a running back with J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey both returning in 2026.

Back to Randall — he's a converted wide receiver who switched to running back during his junior season in 2024. In his lone year as a full-time running back, Randall rushed 168 times for 814 yards and 10 touchdowns last fall. He also totaled 36 receptions for 254 yards and three scores as a senior, earning honorable mention All-ACC recognition.

Denver holds seven picks in the 2026 NFL draft, which will be held in Pittsburgh from April 23-25. Randall, a potential Day 3 target, could make sense as a dynamic weapon for coach Sean Payton's offense.
