CMC ranked 6th; zero backfield competition, positioned as #2 target in 49ers offense
Christian McCaffreyRBSF
Ranked #6 overall in 2026 first-round rankings. Despite being a year older, has zero backfield competition (Keelan Black was a reach in the third round, Breece Robinson is in Atlanta). Expected to be the #2 target in the 49ers offense for a large portion of the season due to departures (Jauan Jennings to Minnesota, Brandon Aiyuk's situation) and George Kittle's torn Achilles recovery timeline. Rushing explosiveness has declined from younger years, but his insane fantasy season last year was driven by passing game involvement, which is expected to continue.
