I’m not sure Taylor has cemented himself as the 1.01. He had a ton of wear and tear in college, whereas Swift should have plenty of treat left. They’re still a toss up at this point until we see landing spots, and that might not even matter that much. Swift is the consensus 1.01 from everything I’ve seen and heard, as well as my personal 1.01.
He had 831 total touches and over 5100 total scrimmage yards (rush/rec).
I think wear and tear is a bit overrated. Tons of carries with the durability mean you can handle the workhorse load. Who knows if Swift can even handle the load going from 10-15 to 18-22 touches a game is a big difference. Yea you could use that scenario to knock either one but id personally want the guy that I know can handle the work load
Yeah the whole “wear and tear” narrative is pretty overrated. It’s not ideal but age is the real enemy, not workload. Some guys with a lot of miles may burn out faster, then again they may not. If you’re using that as a knock against Taylor you’re not doing yourself any favors. Lol
all valid thoughts but we are basically splitting hairs, which is a great problem to have. what a great rookie class! Taylor has a number of strengths and so does Swift. Both should succeed! If you need to make a call it has to come down to landing spot. If that is too close to call, I will ride with the most versatile player – and that would be Swift. But make no mistake about it – Taylor is nice too!
any back taken by the Chiefs in the first 2 rounds is fantasy gold, that is 1.01
I mean, any skill position player they take in the first 3 rounds keep an eye on.
