I cannot remember the last time Jonathan Taylor fell outside my top 12 running back rankings in any given week. This ranking stems from the data behind JT this week being the lowest I can remember as well.

Cupps drops Taylor to RB15; lowest projections he can remember amid trade deadline questions.

Alex Cupps ranks Jonathan Taylor RB15 in Week 8, -6 spots below Fantasy Life consensus (RB9), marking the first time this season or last that Taylor has fallen outside Cupps' top 12 RB rankings. The projection data is the lowest Cupps can remember: Fantasy Life's DvP-adjusted projections 11.9 points (RB18), prediction markets 14.2 points (RB14), and Vegas base projection 8.8 points (RB13). Cupps questions why the market is so low on Taylor all of a sudden, speculating about larger forces at work with the trade deadline looming and potential Colts workload limitations. While acknowledging Taylor's talent and the difficulty of benching him, Cupps warns: 'I would not be surprised to see some funny business happening here in Week 8.'
