Will he prepare 49rs Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty if available? – Sports Illustrated

Currently, the best player in the upcoming NFL project seems to be Boise State, which goes back to Ashton Gianti, and most of the layout drafts predict that he will be available for 49ers when they are on the watch with the 11th choice.

Should they take it?

The analyst at NFL.com Lance Zierlein gives Jeanty 7.15 class-higher than any other perspective this year-and compares Jeanty with a three-time first All Pro and Off-Player of the Year team Ladainian Tomlinson.

For some reason, most gurus drafts love Jeanty, but don’t expect it to be taken in the top 10, which means that it can be available for 49ers. Running backs are not often collected in the top 10 these days. Which means that 49ers have to decide what they will do if it is available.

Currently, they have Christian McCfric, who will be 29 this year – it’s old to run back. He has also touched the ball more than 2000 times in his career, and you can season with his bilateral Achilles tendonitis and PCL damage.

49ers also have Jordan Mason, who is a limited free agent and can sign elsewhere in a month. And they have Isaac Giendo, who promises but also prone to injuries.

If the 49 think Jeanty is the best player in the draft and next Ladine Tomlinson, they should take it regardless of their other needs. Because 49ers are the team of the first team, they are as good as they run back. And McCfri can never be elite again.
