Can Karen Black change the 49ers' reputation for poor running back selection?
5. 5. 2026
This year, the 49ers continued to select running backs, with national champion Karen Black of Indiana University becoming the sixth running back selected by the 49ers in the past six drafts.
Black's potential is indeed impressive; he weared the NFL jerseys and rushed 40 yards in 4.45 seconds on Pro Day. Last season, as the starting running back, Black rushed for 1,040 yards and 10 touchdowns. However, his market value hasn't increased significantly, and because he missed the annual Combine, his draft prospects have remained somewhat uncertain.
Wearing the San Francisco 49ers football jersey, Black can quickly get some playing time. The team has made numerous mistakes in running back drafts over the past few years, with only two players remaining on the roster. Now the pressure is on Black; whether he can change the perception of his running back selection depends on his performance.
The McCarthy vs. Murray showdown is about to begin
12. 5. 2026
The Minnesota Vikings are reportedly planning a classic, exciting quarterback matchup between McCarthy and Murray this offseason. The winner will become the team's starting quarterback.
Since being drafted 10th overall in the first round of the 2024 NBA draft and donning the Minnesota Vikings football jersey, McCarthy has struggled in the NFL. Given this, the team needs to add more depth and competition at the quarterback position. This opportunity arose with former number one draft pick Keller Murray being waived by the Arizona Cardinals. He almost immediately signed a one-year, $1 million-plus minimum contract with his childhood team, the Vikings.
However, considering that Murray has also been plagued by injuries in the past few years and has not performed well on the court while wearing the NFL jerseys,this McCarthy vs. Murray matchup is far from without a clear winner.
