surprised many by selecting UCLA defensive end Laiatu Latu with the 15th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. With draft experts expecting a wide receiver, cornerback, or trade for Indianapolis, this came as a bit of a shock at first. Latu’s inclusion
Despite having nearly his entire rookie season scratched due to a torn Achilles, Odeyingbo played strong to finish the lifeless 2022 campaign. That season was precisely when Odeyingbo started showing promise as a disruptor off the edge. Even with the addition of a Day 1 starter like Latu, I expect the Colts to continue to look closely at Odeyingbo and put him in places to succeed in 2024 with new defensive line coach Charlie Partridge. With Odeyingbo hitting his full stride for the first time, I believe Indy has plans to keep developing him to see how far he can go.
While Latu can improve in areas as a rookie in the NFL, he’s already past Paye on pressuring the passer, obtaining sacks, and overall potential as a defensive end. Paye finished the year with a career-high 8.5 sacks, 52 tackles, and two fumbles forced.
