RB8: Jonathan Taylor (at MIN). Averaging a career-low four yards per carry on a Colts offense that might be one or two more piss-poor performances from Daniel Jones away from making a change under center? Could there be a trade for JT on the horizon? A LOT of options seem to be on the table at the moment, some more fantasy-friendly than others. For now, Taylor remains his usual top-8 self thanks to the weekly expectation for 20-plus touches and likelihood that the big plays will come sooner rather than later (no carries of 25-plus yards on 122 attempts this season!).

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Taylor's career-low 4 YPC and potential QB change create downside despite volume.

Ranked RB8 for Week 7 at MIN; averaging career-low 4 yards per carry on Colts offense that might be one or two more poor performances away from benching Daniel Jones; source raises possibility of trade on the horizon with multiple options on the table; remains top-8 thanks to weekly expectation for 20-plus touches and likelihood of big plays coming soon (no carries of 25-plus yards on 122 attempts this season), but Vikings have allowed fewest PPR points per game to RBs and Colts are implied to score fewer points than anyone except Giants and Dolphins.
