Brian Gutekunst drafted a running back with his second round pick in 2020. At the time he had a potential All-Pro in Aaron Jones, and a solid backup who still has never fumbled the ball in his NFL career, Jamaal Williams. Both of those picks have exceeded their draft status as day three draft picks.
While many saw A.J.Dillon as a luxury pick last year, his breakout game against Tennessee impressed fans and pundits alike. Smart money would bet Gutekunst will tag Williams or Jones and try another day three dive into the 2021 NFL Draft running back draft pool and hope to find another Williams or Jones.
