HC Steichen says RB Giddens a 'Good Get'

Indianapolis Colts HC Shane Steichen believes rookie RB DJ Giddens (and his ability to catch out of the backfield) makes him a 'good get' for the team in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

After a couple of disappointing seasons, Jonathan Taylor had a good year in 2024. With problems expected at quarterback it falls on Taylor to carry the offense again in 2025.

"Amazing year despite team's QB struggles"

Purely as a talent, Taylor belongs in the conversation as a top five NFL RB. When factoring the offensive line, quarterbacks, and receivers into the mix, Taylor won't earn the caliber of opportunities and game scripts that will easily place him in that top tier. 

Still, Taylor delivered fantastic efficiency for the Colts in just 14 games last year. If he can remain healthy, he's a godo bet for fantasy RB1 value in your lineup. He's essentially, pre-Eagles Saquon Barkley. in terms of production profile and situation.

Jonathan Taylor is a 226-pound freak of nature who ran a 4.39 40-yard dash and posted a 36" vertical and a 10'03" broad jump. He ran for 1,977 yards, 2,194 yards, and 2,003 yards in his three collegiate seasons, respectively. He ranked second in opportunities per game (22.9) and fifth in total yards per game (106.7) last season.

"Taylor was a workhorse in 2024, registering 303 carries in just 14 games. As expected, with Anthony Richardson at quarterback Taylor was virtually non-existent in the passing game, but his rushing volume is enough to carry him to another top-10 season."
