I'm partial to going RB in this slot (either JT or CMC) and went with the Colts' lead back. Taylor feels like one of the safest picks you can make in the first round.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Taylor is a first-round anchor in Robust RB builds with elite volume projection.

The source selected Taylor at No. 4 overall as a Robust RB build anchor, calling him "one of the safest picks you can make in the first round." Taylor dominated early in 2025 before Daniel Jones's Achilles tear reduced his volume; with Jones expected to run less in 2026, the source projects Taylor's volume will be "among the highest at RB again." Joel Smyth ranked Indianapolis fifth in offensive line run blocking for 2026. The source values Taylor's early-season dominance as a hedge to secure playoff positioning.
