When Taylor came into the NFL, he had one of the best offensive lines and Philip Rivers at quarterback. Over the last two years the offensive line has gone downhill and he's had Carson Wentz and Matt Ryan. Now he's going into the season with Gardner Minshew or a 21-year-old Anthony Richardson (13 starts and 393 passing attempts in his college career) as his quarterback.
I think Taylor would be thrilled to be with the Chargers. I would definitely call the Colts to see what type of package would be enticing enough to make it happen. Irsay can say he's not trading him all he wants right now, but that could change if it becomes clear that there is no future for Taylor in Indianapolis. Considering Telesco went "all in" by keeping Keenan Allen and Khalil Mack in spite of their cap hits in 2024, I think signing Taylor to an extension after a trade would be an excellent investment that would have much less of an impact on the cap when Taylor's prime is finished in 2026 or after.
