After watching Shady fall out of favor with the Chiefs down the stretch, I'm not sure Taylor would be on the radar with his fumbling issues either. Article also says he struggles as a receiver and blocker.

RB Jonathan Taylor, Wisconsin
Another player who might have been best fit for a bygone era, Taylor is the kind of bell-cow back no longer heavily prized. At 5-10 and 226 pounds with breakaway speed (4.39-second 40-yard dash) and great instincts, he's an accomplished ball-carrier who finished sixth all-time in rushing for the Football Bowl Subdivision. It's the passing game, however, that could trip Taylor up, as he struggled at times as a receiver and didn't do much as a blocker. Pervasive fumbling issues (18 in 41 career games) also could put him out of favor with his next head coach. So long as he can remain healthy after tallying 968 touches in three years, Taylor will have the chance to prove himself as a dependable back at the next level, but his biggest challenge will be becoming a complete one.
