Durability ×0.92
2 of last 3 seasons under 15 games.
Process ×1.01
Process residual (not a second production percentile).
Versatility ×1.02

Quick answer
Taylor scored 339.3 Half-PPR points in 2025 (RB2). At 27.6, nothing in the recent finishes jumps off the page. The 2026 projection still has him in every-week starter range.
