Yahoo Sports NFL on Christian McCaffrey

McCaffrey's 2022 price (3 picks + 5th) sets ceiling for Taylor; Taylor's lighter passing usage may lower ask.

McCaffrey's 2022 trade price (three draft picks plus a 2024 fifth-round pick) serves as a ceiling reference for Jonathan Taylor's potential trade value. McCaffrey has since earned All-Pro honors in both of his healthy seasons. However, two caveats suggest Taylor's price could be lighter: McCaffrey's heavier passing-game usage offsets concerns about aging running-back depreciation in ways Taylor's style might not, and the Niners faced bidding competition from division-rival Los Angeles Rams in 2022, which drove up the price.
