I believe I’m the one that made the the comment Dam is referring to. Reich’s usage of him is certainly part of it. Whether we agree with it or not, Taylor hasn’t been used in that capacity like the players he wants to be paid like - CMC and Kamara. He’s asking for a long term salary in their range. Now he is arguably a better runner than either of those guys, but this is a passing league. Those receptions are deemed more valuable. Maybe Reich was dumb, but I can tell you my eyes say Taylor isn’t dynamic as a receiver (after the catch yes, as a route runner and actually catching no) and he’s still not good as a blocker. Improved but I’m not ready to put ARs health in his hands. My point was if he wants paid like those guys ($16k / yr) then he needs to show that ability. He’s not going to do it on PUP or holding out.
