Trade discussions regarding Colts running back Jonathan Taylor have been going on for two weeks. This will last at least two more days.
The current belief in league circles is that the Colts will take the best offer on the table as the deadline approaches, at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday.
Of course, the Colts would like to get as much as they can, ideally getting the same package the Panthers received from the 49ers for running back Christian McCaffrey. But the Colts will likely take what they can get, with the market for Taylor determined by competition among bidding teams.
Either way, the 2-7 Colts are ready to sell. At this point, they should be ready to move anyone – and everyone. They hope to stockpile draft picks for the next general manager. The more choices there are, the more attractive the work becomes.
So, whether it’s the teams that have been linked to Taylor (Giants, Vikings, Seahawks, Broncos, Packers) or someone unexpected (like the 49ers), a trade should happen before 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, November 10.
