Black competes with James for RB2; backup pedigree but could be league-wide value.

Black, a third-round pick this year, is competing with fifth-round pick Jordan James for the RB2 role behind Christian McCaffrey in San Francisco. The source notes that Black and James are largely similar as running backs, to the point that there might not be a true winner between the two. Black was a backup in both of his two years at Indiana and is two years older than James. If Black can emerge as a clear RB2, he would become one of the biggest values among RB2s league-wide, as McCaffrey does so much work that he might be able to support two handcuffs.
