Christian McCaffrey, the eighth overall pick in last week's NFL Draft, signed his four-year rookie contract with the Carolina Panthers on Thursday.
Although he is expected to open the upcoming season as Carolina's top running back, long time starter Jonathan Stewart will likely still have a prominent role in the offense.
From a fantasy football perspective, McCaffrey should be viewed in the high-end RB2 tier until his clear-cut role in the offense is determined. However, expect his value to peak in PPR scoring formats, more so than in standard leagues.
