STACKED’s take
Black's 47% snap share and elite rushing efficiency make him a strong McCaffrey injury handcuff.
Kaelon Black, the third running back selected in this year's draft and the only RB drafted in either the second or third rounds, played a season-high 47% snap share in Week 7 when Christian McCaffrey strained his hamstring and briefly left the game. Black had 12-63-1 rushing in that game. The source notes Black has been impressive as a runner with 233 yards and a touchdown on 57 carries, an excellent 57.9% rushing success rate per Fantasy Points Data, and is slightly above league average in rushing yards over expected per carry and yards after contact per carry. Black is a physical runner with good run vision. The source recommends Black as an excellent speculative add in case McCaffrey's injury snowballs into something significant, worth a hearty FAAB bid if available.
