More on Taylor and the RB board
He's a depth option, not a priority pick: #13 overall, #6 at his position. Draft late or stream based on matchups.
His current ADP in ESPN drafts is 9.7 (roughly round 1 in a 12-team league). We rank him #10 in 1QB Full-PPR drafts, so he is priced above our projection.
We project 19.6 PPR points per game across an expected 10 games — approximately 196 points for the season. His typical game last season landed between 11.2 and 25.1 (middle 50% of results), and that puts him #15 in projected scoring (#10 on the 1QB draft board once positional value is applied).
He delivered at least 75% of his average in 71% of games, with a floor of 9.2 and a ceiling of 29.2 fantasy points. He boomed (125%+ of average) in 29% of games and busted (under half his average) in 14%.
