That high ankle sprain with 1 reception and 15 yards cost me my championship. Was a very nice prize pool. 

I had the first overall pick in my league and went with CMC over Taylor.  I was laughed out if the draft room.  A few months later CMC carried me to the fantasy title.  Meanwhile the guy with pick 2 and Taylor finished near the bottom of the league.

They were gifted the Patrick mahomes of their era in Peyton Manning and only managed what, 1 Superbowl?

That's Sean Payton with Drew Brees level bad. I think a below average franchise gets at least 2 Superbowls 

In all fairness the Manning led Colts had to deal with Tom Brady and the Pats during his tenure.  Imagine having one of the greatest QBs of all time only to watch him have to play the greatest QB of all time in the AFC playoffs every year.

I wouldn't say that I agree with Jim Irsay (ever) but Taylor strikes me as the kind of guy who's going to have a really strong season or two but also a very short shelf life due to his style of play.

I probably wouldn't trade for him.

Wasn't just that either.

That era in the AFC was absolutely gnarly.  You had prime Manning 1, Brady, Roethlisberger, and Rivers, along with the always good Ravens, and amazing Steelers defenses.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
