LOVE this pick. An explosive playmaker who is a threat to score at anytime. I like the comparison to Sproles. Mike Mayock made a good point saying we need guys who can generate yards, we were only 26th in total offense. James can get yards in bunches.
Also, don't worry about the Niners not drafting a bigger back who can succeed Gore. RB's don't need to groomed, they are plug and play players. We can always get a new feature back when Gore is done. For this year, Jacobs is the bigger back who can handle a big load if Gore goes down.

Hunter isn't going anywhere, Gore is the one who's days are numbered.

No way he is on his way out. I think this pick shows the staffs confidence that Hunter can be the guy in a year or two.

So are we going to carry four runningbacks this season?
Frank Gore, the Workhorse
Kendall Hunter, the Change-of-Pace
Anthony Dixon OR Brandon Jacobs, the Power
LaMichael James, the Homerun Threat
Can he return punts as well?
I'm sorry but gore is no longer a workhorse, look at last year. Over half the games he didn't do s**t
He doesn't have much left

i think we got this guy to be darren sproles if you will
he wont be much of a runner
but as a guy catching off the backfield....
everything ive heard and seen is this guy is electric hime run threat who in open sapce just dominates
guess were carrting 5 guys in backfield this year 4 RB 1 FB in miller
he wont be much of a runner

It'll be fun to see teams try to go jail-break blitz on the 49ers this year..........I'm looking at you Arizona.

Sadly that was my thinking. It might be Gore who might be on his way out.
