Running Back. New York Giants. Christian McCaffrey. 13. player. 31.

The New York Giants have to start thinking about long-term solutions within their running game, and it would be a great through to also pair quarterback Eli Manning with a backfield receiving threat like Stanford’s Christian McCaffrey.

No. 1 Giants tailback Shane Vereen will be 28 years old next season and his backup, Rashad Jennings, is already past the 30-year-old marker.

McCaffrey’s explosive playmaking ability would make New York’s offense all the more dynamic, which would be a scary thing considering the additional weapons Manning has through the air.
