May need shoulder surgery post-Combine
McNichols will likely need shoulder surgery to repair his labrum following the upcoming NFL Combine, Tony Pauline of DraftAnalyst.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Boise State product racked up 43 rushing touchdowns and 10 receiving touchdowns in his two seasons as the Broncos' workhorse back, leaving him with little to prove at the collegiate level and prompting him to enter the draft after his junior season. McNichols' production is elite by any standards, but there are durability concerns with him at the next level given that he had a staggering 554 carries over the last two seasons, including 314 in 2016. The expectation is that he'll participate in the combine, but a shoulder surgery thereafter could keep him out of rookie camp and, by extension, hurt his draft stock.

2016 Fantasy Outlook
McNichols' 2015 season might have made him a Heisman finalist in other seasons, but 1,800 yards and 26 TDS from scrimmage apparently isn't worth what it used to be. Dominant as a runner and receiver, McNichols (5-9, 207) finished with 1,337 rushing yards (5.6 YPC) and 20 TDs while posting 51 catches, 460 yards and six TDs. McNichols is a rare high-volume, high-efficiency player with an all-around skill set in a high-tempo, high-scoring offense. If sophomore QB Brett Rypien improves in his second year as starter, McNichols' scoring rate could reach an even higher level.
