He averaged over 6 yards a carry over 4 years, can't go wrong with this pick.

Elijah Mitchell is one of only two running backs in this year's draft class who earned a 99 athleticism score.

The other? Travis Etienne, who was drafted in the first round.

Maybe this is just one of those guys. They were like we have to draft him at this point... Who cares how many RBs we have.

likely not re-signing Mostert after this season.

Shanny really wants some competition at RB it seems.
I thought we had a void due to Bourne leaving. I can't imagine Hurd will fill that roll.
Maybe we got plans for Cracraft.

I like the pick.
Ground and Pound opposing defenses. Then play action.

Interesting. I like that this late in the draft. Bunch of potential obviously there

This. 2 RBs means Mostert's days are numbered.

Last year Mostert was whining for a trade. Maybe they'll grant him his wish.
This team has Trent Williams, Juice, Kittle and McGlinchey who are all elite run blockers. Perhaps they'll try to shop Mostert or Wilson since they are just 1 year rentals at this point and not durable.

NFL.com lists him at 201. His college profile says 218. He looks more like 218 to me. He sounds like the inside guy to take advantage of Banks and the other fatties inside.
Can you say, "red zone?"

fwiw, the TV guys love him; said something about Kyle Shanahan finding a gem in this round

I think they liked what they saw out of Richie James when he got the opportunity. At least that's what I'm telling myself. That Green Bay game

Looks like Richie James is about to get his shot. He gets yards after the catch which is what Kyle covets.
