Previewing Colts interior offensive line unit ahead of 2026 NFL draft
· Yahoo Sports
With the 2026 NFL draft near, we will be taking a position-by-position look at where things stand with the Indianapolis Colts.
The draft will take place from Apr. 23-25. The Colts have a modest seven draft picks at the moment, including just two in the top 100. GM Chris Ballard, however, has hinted strongly at wanting to gain additional capital. That, in part, could come from trading Kenny Moore.

What is the Colts' need at the interior offensive line in the 2026 NFL draft?
Just like at tackle, the Colts have their starters on the roster, with Quenton Nelson at left guard, followed by Tanor Bortolini at center and Matt Goncalves at right guard. However, depth is a concern here. Morrissey, who has played 318 career snaps on offense since 2021, is Bortolini's backup at the moment. The first guard off the bench is likely Dalton Tucker, who has 615 regular-season snaps but has struggled when called upon. Outside of those two, there is minimal experience here.
