ElijahMitchell

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Since Christian McCaffrey's arrival in San Francisco, Mitchell has recorded exactly 114 carries. Noting injuries (which have limited Mitchell to a total of 16 games over the past two seasons), that's an average of 7.1 attempts per contest. It's, therefore, difficult to consider the Louisiana product a true "backup." He did, however, handle the ball 16 times for 67 scrimmage yards and a rushing score when CMC was resting during Week 18 last season. Heading into the final year of his rookie deal, it's unlikely Mitchell will provide much value to fantasy managers moving forward. His stock took an additional hit with the addition of metrics marvel Isaac Guerendo, whom the 49ers traded up to select in the fourth round of April's draft.
