Rankings
Jason Wood
Jeff Haseley
In six NFL seasons, Taylor has only finished outside of the top 10 twice - both of which were seasons where he was limited to 10 and 11 games played. If he's healthy, he's elite.
Matt Waldman
Taylor is in the same tier of talent as any of the backs mentioned ahead of him. His offensive is also an asset.
The missing link could be quarterback and wide receiver. Daniel Jones is recovering from an Achilles tear, and he may not be ready early in the year.
The Colts might be intent to use Riley Leonard ahead of Anthony Richardson, which could hurt the offense while Jones is out. Alec Pierce may also miss part of September and without Michael Pittman, the corps is a work in progress.
All of these factors could make it easier for opposing defenses to limit Taylor in September. That could be the difference between where I ranked Taylor and where he could have been valued.

Team wants to reduce Jonathan Taylor's workload
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor led the league with 323 rushes last season, and the team wants to reduce his workload. 'We definitely need to find ways to take some of that workload off him,' running backs coach DeAndre Smith said. 'If I can find another guy or two that can take some of those carries off, he's just going to be that much better.'
No contract talks for Jonathan Taylor
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor is hoping for a contract extension, but the Colts have shown 'little initiative' when it comes to contract discussions, according to Stephen Holder of ESPN.com.
Indy aware of Jonathan Taylor's workload
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor led the league with 323 carries and was one of 11 running backs to play in all 17 games last season. Head coach Shane Steichen said the team is aware of it and plan to use RBs Seth McGowan and DJ Giddens to supplement Taylor. 'I think he led the league last year in carries, but talking to him after the season, he said he felt good,' Steichen said. 'But yeah, obviously he's a hell of a player. It's hard to take him off the field when he's running so good, but getting Seth (McGowan) in the fold and DJ (Giddens) and see how those guys come along in training camp, and we'll go from there.'
Jonathan Taylor wants to stay with IND
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor said he wants to spend his entire career with the Colts. He is entering the final year of his current contract.
