Two seasons ago, Jonathan Taylor almost won NFL Offensive Player of the Year. He was eclipsed by Los Angeles Rams receiver Cooper Kupp's historic season, but Taylor had a great case. He led the NFL in rushing yards and touchdowns. He was named All-Pro.
. We can argue the value of running backs in the modern landscape but if Taylor is over the injuries that plagued him last season, it's clear he can help many teams.Baltimore Ravens
Mostly the teams pursuing Taylor should consider themselves contenders. A team like the Arizona Cardinals would be better with Taylor, but still not sniffing the playoffs. It would make no sense to trade assets for him. The Ravens should consider themselves a contender. Baltimore is changing its offense to be more pass heavy, but they should still have a top rushing attack due to the presence of quarterback Lamar Jackson. Baltimore has never had an elite back to pair with Jackson. The Ravens have J.K. Dobbins, but he's unhappy too and has never been a top 10 back. What would the Ravens offense look like with a great running back next to Jackson in the backfield? That could push Baltimore to a new level.
