Overview
- The Indianapolis Colts traded their sixth-round pick to move up from No. 82 to No. 79, selecting Pitt OT Matt Goncalves.
- Goncalves, known for his versatility, can play multiple positions on the offensive line, which is already a strong unit for the Colts.
- Despite a toe injury that ended his senior year early, Goncalves was a full-time starter at Pitt and has now fully recovered.
- The selection was somewhat unexpected as the Colts have more pressing needs, particularly in the secondary.
- General Manager Chris Ballard praised Goncalves for his performance and potential, highlighting the depth of this year's offensive line class.
