Fantasy Football Player Notes
2026 Draft Rankings

9.
Christian McCaffrey
RB
Christian McCaffery led the NFL in touches in 2025 with 450. As I cited heading into the 2025 season regarding Saquon Barkley, chasing these RBs the year after they post monster touch totals is not a good bet to make. Barkley finished 2025 as the RB13. In the last 13 years, only one of those RBs was a top-5 fantasy RB the next year. after seeing 400-plus touches. One. Fade CMC in 2026.

Ricky Pearsall
WR
Buy Ricky Pearsall. Constantly injured in 2025. But he posted 4 games with 85-plus receiving yards. Also led the 49ers in receiving yards per game (59/game).
And although nobody will want to admit it, there is an immense opportunity for Pearsall in the 49ers' offense even with the addition of FA MIke Evans. Jauan Jennings is a free agent. Brandon Aiyuk is not coming back. George Kittle is coming off a torn Achilles. "If" the third-year WR can stay healthy, Slick Rick could be a major piece of winning fantasy football rosters in 2026. |
