Christian McCaffrey's finish as the RB16 is somewhat impressive when you consider he was 39th among RBs in carries and the third in rushing attempts on his own team. McCaffrey had six weeks with at least 10 fantasy points, but he also had three weeks under 5 points. Because of his lack of consistent rush attempts, his scoring was almost completely tied to his receiving workload and after leading all running backs in targets and his role defined, that value is likely sustainable.
One of the obstacles for McCaffrey was Jonathan Stewart who handled 198 carries in his 15 games. And much to the delight of McCaffrey fans, he left the team in the offseason, but much to the dismay of McCaffrey fans, the team replaced him with a more capable, C.J. Anderson, who will almost certainly take a large portion of the early-down work.
McCaffrey's value changes noticeably by scoring style. In standard scoring leagues, he's a mid-RB2 who you can expect 9 to 10 points from each week. In PPR, he's a low-end RB1, RB9 in 2017, with a higher ceiling because of his 7 targets per week. His price is probably best suited as the RB15 and if he improves as a runner and/or increases his share of the carries, he'll likely outperform his ADP.

Panthers sign RB C.J. Anderson
Carolina gets big back to complement McCaffrey
By: Mike Krueger | Mon May 7, 4:00 pm
|  | The Panthers had a vacancy for a traditional running back after not finding one in the draft, so they found a 1,000-yard rusher.
A league source tells PFT that the Panthers have signed veteran running back C.J. Anderson. (ProFootballTalk)
FFToday's Take: The Panthers lost their early-down banger Jonathan Stewart in free agency to the Giants. Anderson notched his first 1000-yard season in 2017 but the Broncos never bought in to Anderson's game, releasing him this off-season. Despite the addition of Anderson, Christian McCaffrey will be the fantasy back to own in Carolina, especially in PPR leagues.
