NFL Draft - Could Breece Hall be the next Jonathan Taylor?
Taylor is already destroying the NFL in only his second year. He gained more than 2,000 all-purpose yards in 2021 and finished second in voting for AP Offensive Player of the Year. Although Taylor had a relatively high draft positon—41st overall—he was only the third running back taken, after the Kansas City Chiefs took Clyde Edwards-Helaire and the Detroit Lions selected D'Andre Swift. Although both of these players may ultimately become solid contributors, Taylor currently has more rushing yards than both of them combined.
Although many scouts underrated Taylor, BackCAST, Football Outsiders' system for projecting running backs, identified Taylor as a potential star.
