Selected by Colts
The Colts selected Haulcy in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 78th overall.
ANALYSIS
This looks like a good pick for the Colts, who could use the likely upgrade at safety. Haulcy (6-feet, 215 pounds) is a throwback safety who's built to both inflict and withstand collisions, yet at no expense to his speed (4.52-second 40-yard dash). Haulcy was a standout true freshman starter at New Mexico in 2022 before transferring to Houston (2023-2024) and finally LSU (2025), defining the defenses he played for at each step. Haulcy should be a quality player both for the Colts and IDP investors.

Could start as rookie
Haulcy has the inside track to start at strong safety as a rookie, Stephen Holder of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Veteran Nick Cross departed in free agency this offseason, leaving an opening in the Colts' secondary. Haulcy, a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, was known in college for laying big hits and forcing turnovers, and he isn't likely to face much competition as there is no proven strong safety currently on the roster.
