        The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Memphis WR Roc Taylor to an Undrafted Free Agent contract after the 2025 NFL Draft. This past year, he had boosted use as a downfield threat (14.5-yard aDOT). Taylor confirmed that speed with a 4.49 (at 213 pounds) at the combine. After two quiet seasons, Taylor’s production exploded as a 2023 junior at Memphis. He tallied team highs in catches (69) and receiving yards (1,083). The yardage marked a nice 27.2% team share, while Taylor added a strong 2.60 yards per route run. The Alabama native remained steady as an outside WR in 2024. He had a 7.23 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 18th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 23.3%, and 32nd among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 74.1. He ranked 40th among WRs in our Draft Sharks predraft Rookie Model scoring a 5.77. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Romeo Doubs.

        2025 Fantasy Football Impact

        Taylor is a speedy WR with decent size who flashed production.

        He has good ball skills, but likely went undrafted due to just not having enough upside.

        Taylor has no real value in redraft or dynasty currently. He is a pass even in very deep leagues.
