Video: I'm Worried
if Christian McCaffrey somehow goes back to being Christian McCaffrey, then the CMC side's easily the winner of this. But it just ends up coming down to what does McCaffrey look like? Because if this usage continues the way that it has, there's a small chance that like Chase Brown's just as good as McCaffrey this year and you're paying Chris Ave when you didn't need to.

STACKED’s take

McVey prefers Chase Brown side of trade; doubts CMC returns to elite form.

Shawn McVey believes the value in a trade of Chase Brown and Chris L for Christian McCaffrey is on the side of Brown and Chris L, not McCaffrey. McVey frames the decision around whether McCaffrey can return to his elite historical form; if his current usage pattern continues, there's a small but real chance Chase Brown could be just as productive as McCaffrey this year while McCaffrey costs additional assets (Chris L). The key uncertainty is McCaffrey's role and efficiency going forward.
