STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Black's 7.0 YPC preseason average makes him a high-upside McCaffrey handcuff.

49ers rookie RB backup identified as a sleeper with significant handcuff upside; averaged 7.0 yards per carry against Las Vegas Raiders in preseason; positioned to inherit massive workload should Christian McCaffrey miss time; benefits from 49ers' star-studded pass catchers stretching defenses, creating running lanes in the middle; late-round stash with surefire starter potential if McCaffrey gets injured.
