From the article

Jonathan Taylor is the RB4 in fantasy on a team that's actively selling away their studs, and that's exactly why it's time to shop him. Indianapolis has lost three straight, scored just 10 points in Week 7, and is a 9.5-point underdog in Jacksonville. Taylor just posted season lows in snap share, carry share, and opportunity while his backup's carries doubled. In 2026, 37% of his points have come on touchdowns; elite backs who lean that hard on touchdowns have declined after Week 7 85% of the time.

Taylor's TD-dependent production and declining usage signal sell; trade to RB-needy team.

Avery Thrasher identifies Jonathan Taylor as a buy-low candidate despite his RB4 ranking, citing the Colts' active sell-off of studs, three-game losing streak, and 9.5-point underdog status against Jacksonville. Taylor posted season lows in snap share, carry share, and opportunity in Week 7 while his backup's carries doubled. Thrasher notes 37% of Taylor's points have come on touchdowns; elite backs leaning that hard on touchdowns have declined after Week 7 85% of the time. With reports of possible trade discussions, Thrasher recommends trading Taylor to an RB-starved team for someone like Garrett Wilson plus additional pieces.
