Fantasy football: Where to draft Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor

Analyzing Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor’s 2022 fantasy football ADP and where you should target him in your drafts.

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor showed up big last season in multiple areas. Taylor was a powerhouse as he led the league in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns.

His domination on the field led to awards like the Bert Bell Award, a 2nd-place in Offensive Player of the Year, a 2-time player of the month, and a 1st-team All-Pro appearance.

Below, we look at Jonathan Taylor’s 2022 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

Taylor is still so fresh in his NFL years and he still has so much left to offer to the Colts. He hasn’t even hit the height of his career yet which makes it all the more exciting to watch him this year.

Jonathan Taylor’s ADP: 1.64

(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

Taylor has an ADP of 1.64 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the first round of the draft. He has the highest ADP in the entire NFL for the 2022 season.

Among running backs, Taylor’s ADP puts him 1st at the position, Christian McCaffrey (Carolina Panthers), Austin Ekeler (Los Angeles Chargers), and Derrick Henry (Tennessee Titans) fall behind Taylor.

Where should you draft Taylor?

Taylor’s fantasy value is high as a kite, and it is for good reason as well. He’s a stud, and while McCaffrey has some claim to the top overall spot, Taylor’s durability is the real X-factor in his position.

The 23-year-old Taylor led the league in rushing attempts, rushing yards and rushing touchdowns a season ago. He was an absolute stud and should have little competition this season. There really isn’t any reason to believe Taylor can’t build on last season, and he’s young enough to hope that injuries really won’t be an issue.

Draft Taylor 1st overall with ease and don’t let him fall out of the top 2 with McCaffrey as the only exception.
