Expert takes

Christian McCaffrey
  • “Year 2 post-tibia fracture: • 4.1 YPC → 3.5 YPC • 3.04 yards after contact per attempt → 2.78 • 0.217 missed tackles forced per attempt → 0.161 Christian McCaffrey does not appear to have the same league-winning upside as last season (18.5 FPG) - 1 top-5 weekly RB finish through four games, compared to 11 in 17 games last season.”

    The FF Newsletter· Oct 8, 2026
  • “Christian McCaffrey finished as RB3 despite only recording 23 rushing yards, thanks to two rushing TDs.”

    Jordan Pullett· Sep 25, 2026
  • “Christian McCaffrey – 8 targets, 5 rec McCaffrey has hit triple-digit targets in five different seasons. He’s arguably the best pass-catching RB in NFL history. If CMC is healthy, he is in your lineup, but it is nice to see that he is still very involved in the passing game.”

    Aaron Larson· Sep 15, 2026
See 9 more
  • “If we could turn injuries off like in the Madden video game, McCaffrey would be the clear-cut 1.01 pick in every non-superflex draft.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 5, 2026
  • “Andrew Erickson’s Draft Landmines of 2026 Christian McCaffrey (RB – SF) Christian McCaffrey led the NFL with 413 touches in 2025 and reached 450 when including the playoffs.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 4, 2026
  • “Going as the RB3, roughly the eighth overall pick, McCaffrey is coming off a season that led all players in total touches. Historically, that’s a dangerous signal: over the last 13 years, only one running back who saw 400-plus touches in a season finished as a top-five back the next year, and running backs age 27 or older who led the league in touches have never finished top five the following season across six such occurrences.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 23, 2026
  • “He’s entering his age-30 season with a lot of miles on the tread. McCaffrey is absolutely capable of smashing, but he could also miss some games. Since 2020, he’s missed half the season or more three times.”

    Kyle Zeigler· Aug 18, 2026
  • “In a full PPR format, CMC represents one of the few RBs in the league who really benefits from the extra bump per reception. McCaffrey had a whopping 102 receptions last season and could very well be one of the main receiving weapons in San Francisco again in 2026.”

    Kurt Mullen· Aug 14, 2026
  • “McCaffrey is coming off a season where he touched the ball 400+ times and finished all but one week of the season as a top-24 RB. The biggest “if” with CMC is his health, but when he is on the field, he is a fantasy league winner.”

    Kurt Mullen· Aug 7, 2026
  • “2 Something to note is that while Christian McCaffrey did not reach the total rushing attempts needed to hit this criterion last season, he did have 311 carries, along with 102 receptions, putting his total workload at a similar number.”

    Jordan Pullett· Jul 29, 2026
  • “The last time McCaffrey had over 400 touches in a year, the superstar missed 69.7% of the games over the next two seasons because of injury.”

    Mike Fanelli· Jul 28, 2026
  • “McCaffrey was the RB1 in points per game, scoring 2.5 points more than the RB2. Once again, the 49ers did very little to persuade us that they don’t believe in McCaffrey’s ability to be a workhorse, instead continuing their habit of talking up a later-round dart throw at the position, who’ll likely struggle to see any involvement.”

    Tom Strachan· Jul 27, 2026
Lamar Jackson
  • “Jackson, 29, has missed games due to five different injuries (two ankle issues to go with knee, hamstring and back problems) since 2021. He also did not look himself for a while following the 2025 hamstring issue, and the Ravens needed Huntley — brought back because of Cooper Rush ’s struggles in the QB2 role last season — again when Jackson sustained the back injury late last season. Although Jackson’s injury issues bring obvious concern given his play style, the Ravens armed their top player with extraordinary leverage this offseason by restructuring his deal .”

    Sam Robinson· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Jackson has already seen a 27% rate of man coverage (6th highest), so this Cleveland defense that is playing man coverage on a league-high 44.4% of snaps should not come as a shock. Jackson has been a bit mortal against man coverage, completing 58.3% of his passes (12th) for 8.5 Y/A (4th) with only a 4.2% touchdown rate (25th) compared to a league-best 76.5% completion rate, league-high 11.1 Y/A, and a 5.9% touchdown rate (2nd) against zone coverages. If Jackson is going to beat you, you might as well be the aggressor and let him carve up zone coverages.”

    Rich Hribar· Oct 14, 2026
  • “Ravens Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is the focal point of OC Declan Doyle ‘s offense, with HC Jesse Minter noting that he and Jackson were looking forward to working together as a group.”

    Wyatt Grindley· Sep 27, 2026
See 10 more
  • “In both of his matchups with the Cowboys, Jackson has run for 181 yards and a TD.”

    Julia Papworth· Sep 25, 2026
  • “Lamar Jackson has a massive ceiling in what projects to be a high-scoring matchup against the Cowboys. Dallas was getting torched by Jayden Daniels before he went down with an injury, which bodes well for Jackson’s outlook in this spot. With his ability to make plays through the air and on the ground, Jackson has the potential to put up a monster performance here.”

    Frank Ammirante· Sep 25, 2026
  • “But Jackson has looked far more like his electric self at the start of this season than he did in 2025. By the end of the season, he should be right up next to (OK, maybe behind) Allen as a top-tier fantasy quarterback.”

    Ted Chmyz· Sep 23, 2026
  • “Unfortunately, Jackson had arguably his worst season as a starter in 2025. He missed four games because of injury and played part of the year hurt. The superstar finished as the QB14 on a points-per-game basis among qualifying quarterbacks, averaging 19.8 fantasy points per contest. However, I expect a bounce-back season for Jackson, especially with Declan Doyle taking over as Baltimore’s offensive coordinator.”

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 16, 2026
  • “If Lamar Jackson can bounce back, Henry could inch back closer to his 2024 production (RB4 in fantasy points per game).”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 5, 2026
  • “With plenty of time to recover from last season, Jackson is a ticking time bomb for fantasy production.”

    Ellis Johnson· Jul 23, 2026
  • “Jackson's 2025 performance was marred by injury and a subpar level of play (by his standards). Therefore, while he has tremendous leverage by virtue of the restructure and the $84.34MM cap number it created for 2027, he may want to come to the negotiating table on the heels of a better season.”

    Rory Parks· Jul 12, 2026
  • “Jackson mentioned that Doyle is running a completely different system from what Todd Monken deployed last season, while there are some concepts from what Greg Roman ran in 2022. Jackson expects more "explosiveness" this season, and Doyle is proving to be a very creative playcaller. "I feel like there's going to be a lot of explosiveness this year," Jackson said. "The way Declan calls plays and his creativity with his mind — how detailed he is — it's mind-blowing. I'm excited."”

    Tony Camino· Jul 10, 2026
  • “It was only a season ago that we saw Jackson finish as the QB1 with 425 fantasy points. That was his second time surpassing 400 fantasy points, a threshold that Allen has never exceeded.”

    Ellis Johnson· Jul 10, 2026
  • “Over his final eight starts, Jackson was the QB29 in fantasy points per game (11.9). He completed just 57.6% of his passes (28th) with 7 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. He had the highest inaccurate throw rate in the league over that span (15.8%).”
