As The Athletic鈥檚 fifth-ranked safety, Haulcy was projected to be selected in the . He is expected to immediately compete for playing time with the Colts after former starting safety Nick Cross signed with the Washington Commanders in March.

鈥淗aulcy has some wild tendencies,鈥� Brugler wrote of Haulcy in 鈥淭he Beast,鈥� . 鈥淕iven his recognition and range, though, teams will be comfortable betting on him to reach his ceiling as an NFL starter. Teams will also appreciate his coachability and intangibles, which will show on special teams.鈥�

Recruited out of Fort Bend Marshall (Texas) High School, Haulcy started the last nine games of his freshman season with the Lobos. He was named the Mountain West Defensive Player of the Week twice and notably made a career-high 24 total tackles in a 41-9 loss to Fresno State before entering the transfer portal at the end of the season.

鈥淪towers will need to prove himself as a serviceable blocker at the NFL level, but he is explosive as a pass catcher, and I love the way he maximizes his catch radius,鈥� Brugler wrote. 鈥淗e has mismatch-creating potential and can eventually develop into an NFL starter.鈥�

While The Athletic listed him as the draft鈥檚 second-best tight end, there have been reports he could be set for another position change. ESPN鈥檚 Jeremy Fowler that some teams evaluated him as more of a receiver than a tight end; other analysts have suggested he might be more well-suited for that role. 

鈥淭his is almost another X receiver for Philadelphia,鈥� NFL Draft analyst Nick Baumgardner . 鈥淚f the Eagles are truly trying to replace (wide receiver) AJ Brown, this is the true comp 鈥� Stowers is an electric 239-pound tight end with terrific work in the air and after the catch. He is not a run blocker, however. That will impact his role.鈥�
