Expert takes
“He leads all receivers in YAC per reception (10.55), per FantasyPtsData, and ranks: • 4.25 YPRR (WR3) • 48.2% team yardage market share (WR2) • 0.172 first downs per route run (WR5) London has yet to score a TD or be targeted in the red zone - positive regression is imminent.”
The FF Newsletter· Oct 8, 2026“Drake London has now overtaken JSN for highest % of team’s receiving yards.”
Kyle Borgognoni· Sep 28, 2026“With Penix at the helm, London is back to being a locked-in top-12 wide receiver.”

“We needed the Falcons to stop making an offense built around Bijan Robinson and Drake London look like such a difficult assignment. Bijan piling up 213 scrimmage yards with two TDs, and London catching nine passes for 194 yards is a pretty convincing argument for getting your best players the friggin’ ball. That is why you should be encouraged by Penix.”
Chris Cash· Sep 28, 2026“Drake London gets a boost now that Penix Jr. is Atlanta’s starting QB, with 16.4 fantasy PPG with Penix Jr.”
Jordan Pullett· Sep 25, 2026“Atlanta has not reached the red zone through two games, and London has yet to see a red-zone or deep target. Michael Penix Jr. returning should help, but Green Bay has been tough on perimeter receivers, so I am not expecting the quarterback change to fix everything right away. I would still start London in most leagues, but I think he is more likely to give you a low-end WR2 week than play up to that top-30 flex ranking.” – Justin Fuhr ( Pro Football Mania )”
FantasyPros Staff· Sep 24, 2026“London has an 18.5% target share, 1.78 YPRR, zero red zone targets, zero deep targets, and a team-leading 20% first-read share. London hasn’t been bad, as he ranks 25th in separation score among 101 qualifying receivers after two weeks, but he can’t throw accurate passes to himself. We’ll see if he can get on track this week against a secondary that has held perimeter wide receivers to the sixth-fewest yards per target, but has allowed the 13th-most fantasy points per opportunity to the position.”
FantasyPros Staff· Sep 23, 2026“London can still rebound, but if he’s going to reach his WR1 ceiling, he needs Michael Penix or Tua Tagovailoa to return. Until then, he’s more of a boom-or-bust WR2/3. For a guy with a second-round price tag, panic is definitely valid.”
Tim Brosnan· Sep 21, 2026“Falcons WR Drake London had just two catches for 29 yards on four targets and TE Kyle Pitts failed to catch his lone target. “Bijan is a great player. We are going to continue leaning on him, but we have to find ways to get all of our guys touches,” Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski said via the Athletic’s Josh Kendall .”

“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.”

“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“Christian McCaffrey | RB, San Francisco 49ers Heading into what will be his 10th season in the NFL, Christian McCaffrey is coming off another season of monstrous volume.”
Kyle Lesti· Aug 11, 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.”
