Derrick Henry or Christian McCaffrey: who has more dynasty value?

The short answer

Christian McCaffrey is currently worth more than Derrick Henry in dynasty Superflex: 448 versus 303, a 32.4% gap.

Two veteran stars create a direct Standard-versus-PPR question alongside a separate win-now market. The comparison uses recorded receiving production over RB replacement and does not convert reputation, health assumptions, or future workload into hidden value.

Decision rule

Start with Christian McCaffrey's edge.

Use redraft and the actual reception setting together, then discount the offer only as much as the published dynasty market already supports.

Not at the baseline price. Christian McCaffrey holds the larger current value, so a straight swap gives up a 32.4% market edge before roster fit is considered. Injury status, starting-lineup need, and manager-specific preference are outside this model.
