6th Round
191. Patrick Taylor Jr. | RB | Memphis
Le’Veon Bell needs a backup. Considering his skill set, Patrick Taylor Jr. is the perfect fit to fill that role.
Taylor Jr. is a powerful rusher that can get the job done in short-yardage situations. He does not have much experience catching passes out of the backfield, but the Jets don’t need him to do that with Bell in the mix.
Memphis has produced good running backs recently. Taylor Jr. might not be the talent that Rams running back Darnell Henderson was coming out of college last year, but he has the ability to fill an important role for the Jets.
