Will Chester Taylor going to be a big factor in the Viking offense?

Question

with AP beying so good, how much will he do. I have Taylor on my fantasy team and im wondering if I should try and trade him for someone, like Earnest Grahem from Tampa Bay

Answer 1

Well, two answers...

1. Taylor will be an important factor in keeping APs carries down, and hopefully reducing his chance of injury.  He's very valuable insurance.  As a fantasy play, he's probably a bye week fill-in or flex starter at best.

2. If someone would give you Ernest Graham for a modest price, he is likely to have more upside, and get more touches.  He only has Warrick Dunn to spell him.  Graham is a decent RB2 or flex starter.

None of us have a crystal ball, but if AP goes down again, Taylor is very valuable.  AP has been injury prone his entire football career.

Answer 2

trade him.
