STM Take
A solid starting safety still climbing in his prime.
The case for
- 2024 tier 3 (#20) STTM peak as a 125th overall 4th-round pick puts him in the rare outlier-positive S developmental class.
- California Pac-12 4th-round origin plus five years of NFL development gives him real veteran market value.
The worry
- Indianapolis's broader defensive identity around the multi-year offensive instability compresses the structural support around Bynum.
- Single year of Colts system experience puts the change-of-scenery 2026 projection at some uncertainty.
What to watch: Whether Bynum earns his first Pro Bowl in 2026 plus crosses into tier 3 (top 25), the threshold for confirming the 2024 ceiling holds.
Full take and bio
2024 tier 3 (#20) STTM peak plus 2025 tier 4 (#26) Colts finish puts Bynum in the structural top-25 S class with continued developmental trajectory. The California Pac-12 4th-round origin plus five years of NFL development give him real veteran market value. The 2026 question is whether Bynum earns his first Pro Bowl plus crosses into tier 3 territory or whether the structural tier 4 finish becomes the stable late-prime baseline.
Bynum came out of California as the Minnesota Vikings' 4th-round pick (125th overall) in 2021. He spent four years in Minnesota under defensive coordinator Brian Flores before signing with the Indianapolis Colts in 2025. His STTM career runs tier 6 (#41) in 2022, tier 5 (#39) in 2023, tier 3 (#20) in 2024, and tier 4 (#26) in 2025.
