Bajon, Taylor, McCaffrey, Cook, Saquon, they're all explosive, but nobody is quite Gibbs.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

McCaffrey is explosive but not at Gibbs' level of play generation.

Harris lists McCaffrey among the explosive running backs (alongside Bijan Robinson, Jonathan Taylor, Dalvin Cook, and Saquon Barkley) but notes that none of them match Gibbs' level of explosiveness and massive-play generation.
