Mellette brought a physical presence to the defensive line group with his stout frame and power at the point of attack. He was quick off the football and consistently showed a strong punch at engagement. During combine drills, he moved well in space and displayed quality agility, bend, and burst.

His sophomore film highlights his versatility, showing the ability to line up both as a 3-technique and as an edge defender. Mellette sets the edge effectively against the run, pushes the pocket from the interior, and stays active throughout plays. His combination of strength, motor, and positional flexibility makes him a prospect to continue tracking in Central Texas.

Cayden came into camp and competed with a consistent motor, showing effort in every rep and staying active throughout drills. He worked mainly on the interior, focusing on staying disciplined with his alignment and trying to hold his ground against offensive linemen in both individual and team settings. His approach was steady — he didn’t take reps off and made sure he stayed involved in every phase of the workout.
