Christian McCaffrey 2018 Outlook
Incoming OC Norv Turner believes there are wrinkles to iron out with a guy like McCaffrey. "He had an unbelievable rookie year and did a lot more than a lot of people would be asked to do and handled them all," Turner said. "That hard-nosed running between the tackles he can certainly do, but I don't know that's what you want to lead with him." Because McCaffrey was a top-10 pick, many were expecting an average higher than 3.7 yards per carry. As a receiver, though, he set a franchise rookie record with 80 catches while averaging a healthy 8.1 yards per reception. He also showed a nose for the end zone with eight total scores. After McCaffrey was drafted, some compared him to Darren Sproles, the multi-dimensional spark plug Turner coached in San Diego. While Sproles only saw 47 touches in 2007 (his first year working with Turner), from 2008 through 2012 he averaged 127 opportunities per season. "Christian is ahead of (where Sproles was), and there are some things we can do that he did, but Christian can run wide receiver routes," Turner said. If nothing else, expect Turner to continue to leverage McCaffrey's receiving skills going forward. Anything more will be gravy, especially with the addition of early-down back C.J. Anderson.

Christian McCaffrey 2017 Outlook
According to ESPN.com, second-round pick Curtis Samuel will play a big role as a slot receiver who also can line up in the backfield, but McCaffrey will have the biggest impact for the Panthers in 2017. He can play running back, slot receiver and wide receiver, and he also returns punts. His flexibility will keep him on the field and create big-play opportunities on short passes. That is much needed for an offense that has ranked 29th in the NFL in yards after the catch over the past two seasons. While his speed, receiving skills and play-making ability are unquestioned, there are plenty of observers who have concerns about McCaffrey's ability to thrive as an RB1 at pro level. Still, as a runner, he displays a patient running style that will remind some of Le'Veon Bell due to his discipline and stop-start acceleration. Despite his diminutive size, McCaffrey is capable of handling inside runs. Of course, Jonathan Stewart remains in the mix in Carolina -- at least for now. But from a fantasy perspective, McCaffrey is going to be the man to own -- especially in PPR scoring formats.
