From the video
a healthy Christian McCaffrey does push these two guys... McAffrey has lost a step. Gibbs, Bejon, just both significantly more explosive runners... McAffrey has four 100 reception seasons in his career. Over the last 20 years, only 40 players have done that at running back... we could look up and see him be very close to the RB2 in scoring this season.
STACKED’s take
NeutralProjection
RB2 projection; lost a step vs. Gibbs/Bijan; 100-catch history
The source projects Christian McCaffrey as a median outcome; a healthy McCaffrey could push Gibbs and Bijan down the rankings, but the source notes McCaffrey has lost a step while both Gibbs and Bijan are significantly more explosive runners. In PPR leagues, McCaffrey's volume—particularly his reception history (four 100-reception seasons in his career; only 40 RBs in the last 20 years have achieved this)—keeps him competitive, though the source does not see him finishing as RB1 given the explosive upside of Gibbs and Bijan. McCaffrey could finish very close to RB2 in scoring this season.
