Christian McCaffrey Fantasy

Carolina Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said that the team has "had internal discussions" about an extension for running back Christian McCaffrey. The stud running back is heading into the final year of his rookie deal, but the Panthers may wait and have him play on the fifth-year team option in 2021 before signing him to a long-term extension. Whether or not McCaffrey is playing with a new deal or not, he should be the No. 1 overall fantasy selection this fall. The 23-year-old former eighth overall pick ran the ball 287 times for a career-high 1,387 yards and 15 touchdowns, while also catching 116 passes for 1,005 yards and another four scores.

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey ran for 26 yards and a touchdown on nine carries during the blowout loss to the Saints on Sunday. He also added seven catches for 72 yards, becoming only the third player in league history to record at least 1,000 rushing yards and receiving yards in the same season. Though the Panthers had a season to forget, the 23-year-old will undoubtedly be the first pick off of the board in the majority of fantasy drafts in 2020.

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey had 54 yards on 13 carries during the loss to Indianapolis on Sunday. He also logged 15 catches for 119 yards, breaking his single-season record of 107 that he had just a season ago. While rookie quarterback Will Grier struggled on the day by throwing three interceptions, McCaffrey was able to get something going, while also taking advantage of the premature exit of D.J. Moore, who left with a concussion. With the 23-year-old looking to join the 1,000/1,000 club, he will have one last shot to get it done against the Saints to close out the regular season.
