That's a hot fucking take for sure.
The smart money was picking up Kendrick Bourne and Jake Tonges. I grabbed Tonges earlier in the week just because I had Kmet and Friermuth and they were both on bye, and I knew Kittle was out. With the other top 2 WRs (after Aiyuk) out, I was like shit I gotta get Bourne and start him but the site shut down pickups 5 minutes before kickoff and I was too late. Mac Jones is not some 3rd tier backup. The Niners outperformed my expectations, but there was no way they were gonna completely lay an egg.
McCaffery is just a fucking stud. My league is some crazy dynasty league where you draft college players and sign them to contracts - after the Rose Bowl (stanford/Iowa) I traded up to get him and signed him to 7 years, everyone told me I was nuts but a RB like that puts you way above the crowd in Fantasy.
Yeah, while Bourne was catching like pretty much everything, I was like hmm. Who the fuck is this.
Might be worth a pickup if Pearsall and whoever else is down. But I don't know if he's a consistent producer. Probably not.
Christian fucking McCaffery is a consistent producer. If he's healthy and in the lineup and you have him on your team, he has to play. If someone says to bench him, they are fucking retarded. I can't say it any differently. And when Tempo comes on and says, durrr, I can see why you would bench him, durrr, nope. Fuck that stupidity.
If you have him, and he's healthy, HE'S YOUR RB1
It's not that fucking complicated.
