Draft note

by John Paulsen

Mostert led the way down the stretch in 2019, carrying the ball at least 10 times in the 49ers’ final eight games, averaging 14.6 touches for 99 total yards and 1.5 touchdowns per game. He is not the clear lead back heading into 2020, but he has made a better case than anyone on the roster. Mostert will be a high-upside back in any given week, but given the nature of the 49ers’ hot-hand approach at the position, this may be a frustrating situation for fantasy owners.

49ers Beat: Don't assume RB Raheem Mostert will start

The Athletic

yesterday · 9:15 PM EDT

I wouldn’t assume Raheem Mostert starts. Once he does, it will be the first start of his career. As dominant as Mostert was toward the end of the season, Kyle Shanahan and Bobby Turner liked starting games with Tevin Coleman because he’s a little bigger and more physical runner than the others.

So my guess is that the arrangement will be the same as last season: Coleman starts, with Turner then using his feel for who’s hot that day dictating the snap loads for the rest of the game.

Related players: Jerick McKinnon, Jeff Wilson

Fantasy Impact:

The wild card, of course, is McKinnon, the author went on to say. It’s possible that he becomes the preferred tailback on third downs. There also could be instances in which he and another tailback are in the formation with McKinnon lining up in the slot or even out wide. The story added if McKinnon's knee isn't as good as the early reports, Wilson enters the picture.

SF RB Raheem Mostert - 2020 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Raheem Mostert has spent time with seven teams over his five NFL seasons, but he has only 178 regular-season carries to show for it. This year he expects something different. After an excellent postseason where he compiled 53 rushes for 336 yards and five touchdowns, Mostert has earned the right to be the 49ers' primary ball carrier in 2020. And he was bulking up this offseason in an effort to be ready for the heavier workload. "I'm actually gaining some more muscle," Mostert said. "So I'm able to take those hits and be one of those guys that are getting 200 carries. I've got to get prepared for that." Mostert averaged a ridiculous 5.6 yards per carry behind a strong offensive line, and now projects to be the starter for the San Francisco 49ers in 2020.

Fantasy Downside
Mostert has never been a workhorse back. Not as a pro. Or in college. As Profootballtalk.com noted, in his most productive season at Purdue, he only had 93 carries for 529 yards. And the Niners will still take a hot-hand approach at the position.

2020 Bottom Line
Still, assuming he can fend off challenges from Tevin Coleman and (a possibly-healthy) Jerick McKinnon (Matt Breida was traded to Miami), it appears this will be the year when Mostert can prove his worth as an every-down back. If that's the case, his production last season -- Mostert tied for ninth among RBs in games with 20-plus fantasy points (no other 49ers back had more than one) -- suggests he'll be a viable fantasy asset -- assuming he remains with the team (absent a desired new contract, Mostert requested a trade early in July).
