Field Yates Mock: Colts Pick Caleb Banks

0:00On March 24, ESPN analyst Field Yates released his latest two-round mod draft for the 2026 NFL draft, right after free agency wrapped. Up. In it, he has the Indianapolis Colts selecting Florida defensive tackle, Kayla Banks, with the 47th overall pick. Banks stands 6'6 and weighs around 330 lbs with impressive link from his 35-inch arms. He saw a limited action in just three games last season, due to a foot procedure, but over the prior two years, he racked up 53 quarterback, pressures, 6'6 and rank 17th, among defensive ends and pass rush win rate. This pick would give the Colts a solid boost to their defensive tackle group, right behind stars like DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart. Looking ahead, none of their current tackles are locked in for 2027, so it makes sense for General Manager Chris Baller to start. Looking now, that said, the Colts faced some tough choices in the draft. They need to push for the playoffs this season, so spots like defensive end or linebacker

1:04might jump ahead of tackle. Recent signings of Colby Wooden, Derek Anati, and Jerry Tillerie could buy them time without rushing the position early on. Fans and analysts are watching how Baller balanced his immediate wins with long-term depth on the line.
