From the article

Black got extra work in Week 7 while Christian McCaffrey was out with a thigh injury during the first half. He was ineffective on early goal-line opportunities (McCaffrey had to finish the drive on fourth down) and fumbled later in the game, but Black also broke a long touchdown.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Black's handcuff value rises with McCaffrey's confirmed hamstring strain and bye-week hold.

The source recommends a 15-30% FAAB bid for Black and rates him a high-priority Week 8 add worth carrying through the bye; while Black was ineffective on early goal-line opportunities and fumbled in Week 7, he also broke a long touchdown, and the injury seal on Christian McCaffrey has been broken with Kyle Shanahan confirming a mild hamstring strain, making Black a handcuff with upside if McCaffrey's availability becomes uncertain.
