I'd rather I feel more comfortable with Saquon Barkley, as crazy as it sounds, than Christian McCaffrey this year, too.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Hartitz prefers Saquon Barkley over CMC despite CMC's receiving edge due to age and workload concerns.

Ian Hartitz has drafted Christian McCaffrey multiple times but is comfortable managing exposure rather than targeting 100% allocation, spreading CMC exposure across his teams. More significantly, Hartitz expresses hesitation about McCaffrey's draft value compared to Saquon Barkley, noting concerns about McCaffrey's age and touch workload after big touch seasons. Despite McCaffrey's receiving production advantage (his receiving production alone last season exceeded Saquon's total production), Hartitz prefers Saquon Barkley, stating 'I'd rather I feel more comfortable with Saquon Barkley, as crazy as it sounds, than Christian McCaffrey this year, too,' citing Barkley's arguably better offensive situation with Sean Manion.
