Jonathan Taylor is a 27-year-old RB whom we slot in tier B2 of our 2026 superflex rankings, carrying an expert consensus rank (ECR) of 19 and an average draft position of 7.4. Our current projection, built from Sleeper depth-chart data and a 16-game baseline, calls for roughly 1,350 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns, plus about 35 receptions for 280 yards, which lands him near 17.4 fantasy points per game. The market is chasing him a little: his average ADP of 7.4 sits 11.6 picks ahead of his ECR of 19, so you are paying a premium over his true consensus value on most platforms. The schedule bears watching, though: his playoff-window opponents (weeks 15 through 17) average a 27 defensive rank against a 17.9 regular-season mark, so plan a contingency for the title weeks.
