Don’t be surprised if this undrafted RB takes over 49ers training camp

Former Oregon running back Jordan James has a lot going for him as he enters his inaugural San Francisco 49ers training camp.

Not only did James command use of a draft pick by the Niners on day three, but he also received the personal sign-off from franchise legend Frank Gore just before the pick.

That said, there's another rookie rusher who might be the talk of camp and the preseason, Cincinnati's Corey Kiner.

The former LSU transfer went undrafted, signing with San Francisco not long after the draft concluded. Despite the draft snub, the 5-foot-9 and 209-pound tailback appears to be next in line of one of the many undrafted running backs head coach Kyle Shanahan has molded and developed into quality players.
