At the NFL combine in March, Christian McCaffrey made the rounds from team to team to field their questions and offer his sales pitch of himself. The 2015 Heisman runner-up and son of former Broncos receiver Ed McCaffrey already had the resume and the pedigree, but he wanted to prove his worth as a pro — a pro running back, pro receiver and pro returner.
“To show coaches I can play running back, I can play receiver. I can do all the return game stuff, that’s important to me,” he said at the time.
