McCaffrey. One of the worst examples, 14th per game and he had 80 catches in 16 games... I think McCaffrey was probably in the range of RB 14, if not lower, because we expected him to be more of a specialist than a full down, a full time workhorse running back. I believe he's still sharing with John that Stewart.
