Jonathan Taylor led football with 18 rushing touchdowns, and that number is carrying a first-round price. He beat his expected points by 53, a 96th-percentile overshoot, and the touchdown total is the least repeatable part of it, which is why the consensus haircuts him to 288 and RB4 with 13 scores in the line. Plenty of the profile is sturdy: a league-high 323 carries, 27 broken tackles on runs, second-most at the position, and 2.35 yards after contact per carry in the 86th percentile, so the yardage is largely his own creation rather than a gift from blocking that graded middle-of-the-pack. The weekly experience deserves pricing too: his median week was 15.4 points against a 19.8 average, with a 48-point week propping up the season, and only 55 targets means there's no catch volume to smooth the games when he doesn't score. Indianapolis sits in the bottom half of early implied totals, and the half-PPR market at 6.4 overall lands almost exactly on the projection. He's a sensibly priced bell-cow whose weeks will run lumpier than the draft slot implies.
