Additional details
- Surrendering a first-rounder and two additional selections for a running back is expensive, especially alongside Taylor’s contract.
- The New York Giants escaped Philadelphia with a victory, but their rushing attack delivered a warning that should resonate louder than the celebration.
- Taylor would give New York a runner defenses must account for before the snap.
- However, a division victory should not obscure the difference between controlling a game and navigating around an offensive weakness.
- The Colts currently lack a 2027 first-round pick, making this proposed return particularly relevant to their roster-building outlook.
