3 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert could be in for a masterpiece on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. The Lions struggled against the run last year, giving up 134.9 rushing yards per game which was good for fifth-worst. The run-heavy scheme of the 49ers puts Mostert in must-start territory for this contest because of the undeniable talent he has when he is on the field. The 29-year-old should see the most work out of the backfield, but rookie Trey Sermon will get some touches as well. Still, the likely positive game script for Mostert should get him enough volume to achieve RB2 numbers in Week 1.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
