Draft: RB Raheem Mostert
If you must have a 49ers running back, Mostert is the one to pick up. He thrives in Shanahan’s offense with his speed to get to the edge and his decisive running style. He was also adept at making tacklers miss when he did encounter them. Mostert turned 137 carries into 772 yards and eight touchdowns. He’s averaging 6.0 yards per carry on 178-career attempts. Even if he doesn’t get a ton of carries, he’s exceptionally efficient. The issue with him comes in PPR leagues. Last year he was targeted only 22 times in the passing game, and posted 180 yards with two touchdowns on 14 catches. His current ADP is a little high given how unpredictable production is from the 49ers’ backfield, but if any of their running backs is going to have a monster season, it’s Mostert.
ADP: 65 overall (RB 22)
