Taylor enters the NFL after one of the most productive collegiate careers in NCAA history.

The New Jersey native burst onto the scene with 1,977 rushing yards as a true freshman and he followed it up with back-to-back 2,000-yard seasons over his next two years. He finished with 6,174 rushing yards in his career, which ranks sixth all time and made him the only person to top 6,000 yards in three years.

Though some argue he benefitted from a great system with the Badgers, he also excelled with long runs after contact:

It helped Taylor average 6.7 yards per carry in his career while totaling 50 rushing touchdowns. He also expanded his game in 2019 with 26 receptions for 252 yards and five scores.

At 5'11", 219 pounds with impressive athleticism, the running back has a chance to make an immediate impact at the next level and the Colts should take advantage.

Even with running back Marlon Mack already on the roster, Taylor should quickly earn a role within the offense and could become a featured back before too long. It could help him become a fan favorite in his new city and a top fantasy option for people all over the country.
