Report: Christian McCaffrey gaining steam as top 10 pick
Could Christian McCaffrey be pushing his way up NFL draft boards?
According to FOX Sports’s Peter Schrager, the answer is yes. He hears that multiple NFL executives believe the Stanford running back will now be a top ten pick.
Here's one for Wednesday night. Heard from multiple front office execs over last few days. Feeling is now Christian McCaffery goes Top 10.

Most previous mock drafts had McCaffrey going later in the first round, but there are plenty of teams in need of running backs, and he’s clearly impressing some of them. He had a strong NFL Combine, which has probably contributed to his rise as well.
