Fantasy Analysis
Season Projections
If you are concerned that McCaffrey's workload from 2019 isn't sustainable, the Panthers gave us $64 million reasons to believe it is and didn't bring in anyone else of consequence to steal touches from him. Specifically, note his role in the passing game. He topped 20 carries in a game just twice in the team's final eight games, but had a jaw dropping 90 targets (74 receptions, 682 yards) as a receiver. Given what's happened to the Panthers defense over the last few months (only four returning starters, featuring the retirement of Luke Kuechly) there's reason to believe that more receiving will be in his future. An investment can't get much safer than McCaffrey at running back to open your draft.
Rushing: 1209 Yards, 11 TD.
Receiving: 110 Receptions, 953 Yards, 6 TD.
