The price for Jonathan Taylor: 1st round pick + Defensive Tackle

The Indianapolis Colts have set their asking price for star running back Jonathan Taylor ahead of the NFL trade deadline. According to journalist Josina Anderson, Indianapolis is seeking a first-round draft pick in 2027 or 2028 along with a defensive tackle. Despite listening to offers, the Colts are reportedly content to keep the 27-year-old running back unless a team meets their steep demands.

Writer Jay Robins highlights potential young defensive tackle trade targets, including Domonique Orange, Chris McClellan, and Darius Alexander, to address Indianapolis' interior defensive line. Taylor remains under contract through the 2028 season, giving the Colts leverage to retain him if an acceptable deal does not materialize.
