Louisville RB Shines at Combine

Introducing Issac Guerendo, a dynamic running back hailing from Louisville with immense potential for fantasy football success. With a remarkable Relative Athletic Score of 9.99, Guerendo’s athleticism is off the charts. As a former wide receiver, he brings speed and agility to the field, evident in his impressive 4.33 40-yard dash time. In his collegiate career, Guerendo amassed 810 yards with an outstanding 6.1 yards per carry average and scored 11 touchdowns, showcasing his playmaking ability and knack for finding the end zone.

 

 

What sets Guerendo apart is his extraordinary athleticism, particularly for his size. He holds the title for the fastest 40-yard dash among players weighing 220 pounds or more, a feat unmatched in recent history. Additionally, he ranks in the top five for vertical jump and broad jump among players of similar weight over the past two decades, highlighting his explosive power and leaping ability.

San Francisco 49ers Draft Isaac Guerendo With 129th Pick
3 weeks ago

The San Francisco 49ers have selected running back Isaac Guerendo from the University of Louisville with the 129th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

After being buried in Wisconsin’s running back room, Isaac Guerendo transferred to Louisville and made himself known his senior season 810 yards (6.1 YPC) and 11 touchdowns. He also added 22 catches for 232 yards. Guerendo was a big time combine winner after absolutely lighting up every test thrown at him. He posted a 4.33 40-yard dash, a 41.5 inch vertical jump, and a 10’9” broad jump which was good enough for a relative athletic score of 9.98. Very impressive for his size at 6’0” and 221 pounds.

 

Guerendo now finds himself in a decent fantasy situation for a later pick. Yes, he is stuck behind Christian McCaffrey, but Elijah Mitchell is entering the last year of his deal and Guerendo should find himself as McCaffrey’s primary backup by 2025. Guerendo’s speed should pair well into the 49ers running scheme and we’ve seen how valuable that 49ers backup running back spot has been in the past. The 49ers also traded up for Guerendo showing he was a player they specifically sought out. You should have no reservations taking a shot at Guerendo in the later rounds of your rookie drafts and he would make a great taxi squad stash for a year.

Louisville RB Isaac Guerendo Crushes at the Combine Posting the Best RAS in the Past 24 Years

 Louisville RB Isaac Guerendo impresses at Combine posting the best RAS in the past 24 years

Louisville RB Isaac Guerendo impresses at the Combine posting the best RAS in the past 24 years. Guerendo becomes only the second player to post a 9.99 since 1997. The last time this was accomplished was way back in 1999 when Edgerin James did it, and we all know his historic career went. Guerendo’s historic day started when he posted the best vertical jump of the day of 41.5”. He then went on to post the best 40 yard dash time of 4.33, where he hit a top speed of 24mph. Guerendo was the only running back this year to reach the 24mph mark this year at the Combine. 

 

 

 

Guerendo is a great outside zone runner with good vision, he is a good pass catcher, and his speed mixed in with his size makes him a very intriguing prospect, especially after crushing it at the Combine. An injury plagued 2022 season with the Wisconsin Badgers saw Guerendo’s stock fall, which led to his transfer to Louisville. In 2023, Guerendo carried the ball 123 times for 810 yards and 11 touchdowns. Splitting time with Jahwar Jordan last year at Louisville, Guerendo should have very little wear on his body.

 

 

 

With Guerendo’s strong showing at the Combine, he becomes one of the most intriguing prospects in this draft class, especially when you consider how wide open this running back class is. After the Combine Guerendo stock skyrocketed, and now has put himself in the conversation of being one of the first 5 running backs off the board  in this draft class.
