49ers running back coach, Bobby Turner, was in almost constant contact with Ohio State running back Trey Sermon before the draft. Turner, a trusted member of the staff with an eye for talent, believes Sermon is the type of back who can succeed in the Shanahan offense.

Footballguys View: If Turner is standing on the table for you, then you know the kid can play. Sermon is one of the best backs in this draft class, a Matt Waldman favorite, and a perfect fit for what the 49ers want to do on the ground. His current ADP of RB62 (12.11) in 12-team PPR leagues should rise as the regular season gets closer.
