KS-Sen: Taylor drops out

This all may be a bit premature.  According to The Hill, it's not clear that Taylor can just withdraw his name from the ballot without a particular legally acceptable reason or that the Democrats don't have to nominate someone in his place.  So it's possible Taylor's name will be on the ballot or Democrats will have to name someone else.  The Kansas Secretary of State is looking into it.

Hopefully Weiland in South Dakota follows suit and drops out leaving Pressler to battle Rounds.

That's not going to happen.  According to the South Dakota Secretary of State's calendar, the last day for a candidate to withdraw his name from the ballot was August 5.  Absentees will start to go out in two weeks and may already have been printed.
