Historical touch volume and age trends suggest a high bust risk for McCaffrey

Erickson advises fading McCaffrey due to the historical trend of running backs struggling after 400+ touch seasons; only one RB since 2013 has finished as a top-5 fantasy back the year after leading the league in touches. McCaffrey is nearing age 30, showed signs of decline with a career-low 3.8 yards per attempt and poor rushing yards over expectation, and is currently dealing with physical tightness. The 49ers' aging offensive line adds further risk to the offense.
