Scouting report

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 18 Fantasy Football Outlook

Wild Card Round at Jacksonville Jaguars

Tyrod Taylor has gone three games without throwing an interception, but still has only been responsible for 3 touchdowns during that span (2 passing, 1 rushing). That has been his M.O. most of the season. He has played responsible football without glamor stats.

Taylor has the worst matchup of all the quarterbacks playing Wild Card weekend, facing a Jaguars defense ranked seventh in aFPA to quarterbacks. We don't expect much from him this week and he is ranked as our worst fantasy quarterback.

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Miami Dolphins

Tyrod Taylor threw for 281 yards last week, but he has thrown only 1 touchdown pass in the past three games. He has had his moments this season, but overall, his inability to create touchdowns has been his biggest flaw as a fantasy quarterback.

He will face the Dolphins, who are 24th in aFPA to quarterbacks, for the second time in the last three weeks. He did throw and run for a touchdown in their previous meeting. With expected good weather in Miami, we think Taylor is going to be a factor in Week 17. Start him as a solid QB1 for Week17.

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at New England Patriots

Tyrod Taylor produced 224 yards passing and a touchdown last week in a win over Miami. He also rushed for 42 yards and another touchdown. The performance wasn't anything eye-opening from a fantasy standpoint, but it was a solid NFL performance we've become accustomed to from Taylor this season.

Taylor gets ready to face the New England Patriots this week, who are ranked 10th in aFPA to quarterbacks. In the first meeting with the Pats, Taylor was injured and only threw for 65 yards and an interception. He gets a second chance at New England on Sunday, but the prospects aren't good to put up significant fantasy numbers. Keep Taylor on the bench as a QB2 for Week 16.

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Miami Dolphins

Tyrod Taylor has not put up any significant fantasy numbers since Week 9. A benching and injuries have made it tough for him to get any consistency. He is currently struggling with a knee injury that kept him out last week and there is no guarantee he will play this week.

It is a favorable matchup for the Bills against Miami this week, who is ranked 22nd in aFPA to quarterbacks. But because of the struggles and because he isn't 100% healthy, Taylor only ranks as a QB2 for Week 15. Keep him on the bench.

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. New England Patriots

Back as the starter, Tyrod Taylor put up numbers he was recording before his temporary benching that lasted a half. While not great fantasy numbers, he has kept the interceptions off the scoresheet (only 3 this season). Taylor was only responsible for one touchdown so it wasn't a great week, but it at least gives him a future the last part of the season.

Taylor will face New England this week, who is ranked 19th in aFPA to quarterbacks. He did nothing special last season against the Pats but that was a better New England defense.

Start Taylor as a low-end QB1 for Week 12. He should have a good day at home.

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Kansas City Chiefs

Tyrod Taylor's benching lasted one half and because Nathan Peterman's performance was so bad, it probably will keep Taylor in the starting lineup for the rest of the season. In the second half, Taylor threw for 158 yards and touchdown without an interception. It was surprising coach Sean McDermott made the QB move in the first place because the Bills are alive in the playoffs. The veteran should be the guy as long as Buffalo is still in the hunt.

Taylor will face KC on the road who is 22nd in aFPA to quarterbacks. Even though it is a decent matchup, the road game will be a tough one for him and the Bills as the offense has been struggling. Keep Taylor on the bench as a QB2 for Week 12.

BUF QB Tyrod Taylor - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. New Orleans Saints

Tyrod Taylor had season-highs in completions, attempts, and yardage last week against Oakland. He also threw 2 scores and has a 5-to-1 TD-to-INT rate. Taylor also ran for a touchdown for the second straight game. Not only are the Bills playoff contenders, but Taylor has turned himself into a legit fantasy option on a weekly basis.

Buffalo faces the Saints, who are ranked 15th in aFPA vs. quarterbacks, so Taylor should continue his effectiveness. Start Taylor as a solid QB1 for Week 10.
