Christian McCaffrey A Premium Option In Week 4

Christian McCaffrey A Premium Option In Week 4

one year ago

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey will remain a dangerous weapon for fantasy managers to deploy in Week 4 when the 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. In Week 3, McCaffrey carried the ball 18 times for 85 yards and a touchdown with five receptions on as many targets for 34 yards. With the performance, McCaffrey tied legend Jerry Rice's franchise record for most consecutive games played with a touchdown at 12. As evidenced by the streak, McCaffrey currently has the highest fantasy floor of any running back in the league with week-winning upside. Arizona's run defense has been good, tied for 7th in the NFL in yards per carry allowed at 4.6, but CMC is as matchup-proof as they come. Start him with confidence as he tries to surpass Rice and break the plane into 49ers lore.
