I'm looking for an angle grinder to use at home, primarily for some light projects. I want to make sure I can sand 1-inch thick corroded metal poles with an attachment. Any recommendations on which DeWalt model would be the best fit for this purpose?

Definitely consider getting a model with variable speed settings if you're using it for sanding. It’ll give you better control over the process.
I found that the XR 4-1/2 inch grinder kit is a great buy. It comes with a fast charger and an 8Ah battery for around $220. You can return the extra battery for a refund, making the total cost about $220. Just make sure to check out deals and discounts at places like Lowe's!
For your needs, I'd recommend checking out the DeWalt 418FV or the 416FVA. These models have the power you’ll need to tackle sanding without taking forever.
That kit sounds interesting! I noticed the 408B model is significantly cheaper at about $75 right now, and it seems to have a lot of similarities. Might be worth looking into if you're on a budget.
