Here is one stat to know about each of the Indianapolis Colts' eight 2026 NFL draft picks.

The Indianapolis Colts ended up making eight picks in the 2026 NFL draft. Linebacker CJ Allen was Chris Ballard's first selection, and he wrapped up the Colts ' draft by picking Deion Burks. As we continue to get to know the newest members of the Colts, here is one stat to know about each player, highlighting what they can bring to this year's team.

LB CJ Allen: A very reliable tackler Over his three seasons at Georgia, Allen made 224 of his 242 tackle attempts, according to PFF. That's a missed tackle rate of 7. 4%.

For some context, hanging around the 7% range like Allen makes him one of the more reliable tacklers in college football. Then doing that over three seasons is even more impressive. S AJ Haulcy: Ball skills Over the last two seasons, Haulcy has recorded eight interceptions and 12 pass deflections.

Quarterbacks' cumulative passer rating when targeting Haulcy in 2025 was just 59. 0. OL Jalen Farmer: Strong in pass protection Farmer surrendered only 14 pressures and three sacks over 457 pass-blocking snaps in 2025.
