SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #64   
Overall: #278


Taylor posted his worst numbers in several seasons last year. He averaged just 3.9 yards per carry, which tied his career low. Taylor seems to have lost a little. But he has a ton of experience and some big seasons under his belt. He moves to a platoon situation in New England, which could suit him well. He'll share carries with a host of backs. Taylor has seven 1,000-yard seasons in his career. He remains a pretty explosive back with big-play ability. He is a capable receiver out of the backfield, but hasn't gotten many chances in that role in recent seasons.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Taylor was a bust last season, but could turn it around a little in New England. His touchdown totals won't be very good, but it wouldn't surprise to see him reach 1,000 total yards in the Patriots explosive offense. Taylor is worth a late-round pick as a No. 3 or 4 back.
