That trend has changed somewhat in recent years due to a number of very strong and deep wide receiver draft classes, but McCaffrey was considered a very raw prospect coming out. He entered college playing quarterback and switched positions, so he was very new to the position when the Commanders drafted him. That has caused him to take a little longer to develop, which makes this almost a make or break year for him.
