I wouldn’t lean on any PFF ranking in isolation, but it’s backed up by the eye test, the stats, and the narrative around the guy. So then when you look at PFF and it grades him the same as two JAGs we know very, very well, it provides some context for the level of mediocrity we’re likely dealing with.
And could you imagine paying much of anything for either of those two guys?

That's not what the article I posted said about Taylor being graded overall WORSE than OBJ last year. But I digress...I can't speak to the eye test I didn't see him play last year and I don't hang around any degenerate Rams fans to hear their side of it. BUT I don't disbelieve that his performance the past year/two is on par with Demarcus Robinson/Pringle - my only question is can it be related to overall team performance. Hard to believe such a talent has fallen so far off a cliff. JMHO - at least Josh Gordon had an excuse (out of the league, substance abuse problems)
