Video: Top 40 Running Back Rankings & Tiers - 2026 Fantasy Football
Christian McAffrey averaged 24 and a half fantasy points per game... 18.29 rushing attempts per contest, six receptions a game, 70 rushing yards per game... he was at the very top of the NFL among all players in total receptions last season... you do have the age concern. You do have the historical injury concerns that just aren't present with Bejian or Gibbs, which is why obviously I would have them a tier above.

Age-30 concern drops elite 24.5 PPG producer below S-tier despite round-one draft value

Ranked tier below S-tier (Bejian/Gibbs) despite dominant 2025 season: 24.5 PPG, 18.29 rushing attempts per game, 6 receptions per game, 70 rushing yards per game. Led NFL in total receptions. Age-30 concern is primary downside; historical comps (Alvin Kamara 19 PPG at age 29, Jamal Charles 20.2 PPG at age 29) show only Derrick Henry improved from age 29 to 30. However, McCaffrey's elite receiving usage (6 rec/game) may prevent typical age-30 decline. Robinson would draft McCaffrey round one but ranks him below Bejian/Gibbs due to age and historical injury concerns.
