2024 Fantasy Outlook
A 4.33 40-yard time and a strong overall performance at the Combine launched Guerendo up draft boards, and the 49ers traded up in the fourth round to make sure they got the 221-pound speedster. Kyle Shanahan's offense is arguably the best in the league for a running back, especially one with game-breaking speed, though Guerendo figures to begin his career behind three-down workhorse Christian McCaffrey and the brittle Elijah Mitchell. Guerendo was never a lead back during his time at Wisconsin and Louisville, but he averaged 6.1 yards on 132 carries for the Cardinals last season and now becomes one of the fastest running backs in the NFL.

RANKS
Fumbles lone touch on offense
Guerendo lost a fumble on his lone carry Sunday, failing to gain any yards while earning zero targets in a blowout win over the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Guerendo had a nightmarish game that resulted in a negative fantasy score for anyone bold enough to play the sparsely-used backup against New England. In an effort to not be too harsh on the rookie, it should be noted that he gained 23 yards on San Francisco's only kickoff return Sunday. While Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) mends on IR, it would take another injury to current starter Jordan Mason to give Guerendo fantasy value in most leagues heading into a Week 5 tilt against Arizona next Sunday.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Behind CMC and Mitchell
Guerendo is facing competition for the third spot on San Francisco's running back depth chart and is clearly behind both Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Lombardi mentions Guerendo's speed could come in handy as a return man on special teams, but as far as offense goes, the 2024 fourth-round draft pick out of Louisville doesn't appear to be headed for a prominent role as a rookie. Guerendo likely won't push McCaffrey or Mitchell for one of the top two spots on the depth chart, and he'll need to beat out incumbent third-stringer Jordan Mason and rookie undrafted free agent Cody Schrader for playing time.
