Deep Pick choiceDraft Christian McCaffrey over Jaxon Smith-Njigba if both are on the board. This is a cross-position call, so raw RB and WR points are not the tiebreaker: Christian McCaffrey is RB6 and No. 9 overall, 4 spots ahead of Jaxon Smith-Njigba at WR5 after the board weighs replacement value, weekly startability, ceiling, role resilience, and playoff runway. Jaxon Smith-Njigba remains a strong roster-build alternative, but Christian McCaffrey is the cleaner pick unless verified opportunity falls below 54% or the accepted team-scoring band changes.
