What is your ideal backfield in 2025

As otherworldly as CMC has been he's not getting any younger or healthier. Mason hits the hole harder in my opinion and Guerrendo is faster. Do we just walk away from Mitchell as he's never really been healthy, his game when healthy is kind of a perfect mixture of the three. Trying to get CMC into form has cost us slot this year and I'd rather not see us drop a few games Early trying to re capture that lightning in a bottle.

Whoever may be here, I would like a healthy group of capable backs sharing the load so that no one RB is completely ground to dust.

For whatever reason that is unfortunately what we do. I think it is because Kyle's system is so dependent on rhythm. I really hate to say it but it looks as though father time has caught CMC. Mason has absolutely out performed him and in limited exposure so has Guerrendo.

Just feels like we were trying to recapture the past this year and everyone is one year older and one step slower. I'd like to see some youth and speed to replace a few of these aging stars, we need a better mix of paid vs hungry. Right now its apot of paid vs a few hungry.

CMC done... we should use him the way KC back then used Marcus Allen since CMC's football IQ is very high..

I like 24 and 31.. 31 reminds me of a young Herschel Walker.. these 2 are the future..

31 will run for 3, 4, 3, then boooomm !!! 42 yards all of a sudden !!

If the 49ers used a first round pick on a RB, the Webzone would crash and stay down and fans might even go and burn the stadium down.

U sure you wouldn't do cartwheels if we trade out of the 1st to gain more picks and land an early 2nd then draft Boise's Jeanty?

My question is, would yall replace all three with James Connor? We're talking a 2025 version of CMC.
