ESPN Fantasy Projection: Black was selected by the 49ers in the third round of April's draft. It was a bit of a surprise selection after Black failed to clear 190 touches in four collegiate seasons prior to not landing an invite to the scouting combine. He did clear 1,000 rushing yards at Indiana in 2025, but remained a nonfactor as a receiver, totaling exactly four receptions in each of his two seasons with the Hoosiers. Black will open his career in a battle with Jordan James for No. 2 duties behind Christian McCaffrey. He'll be worth an add if the 30-year-old McCaffrey misses time, but a lack of third-down ability may severely limit his fantasy output. Stash Black in dynasty formats.
