49ers Breakdown: Fullbacks
Next in the Position breakdown are the fullbacks. It seems like fullback are an endangered species in the NFL now a days. The last star fullback in the NFL was Mike Alstott of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, since his retirement we have seen more and more teams fade away from using a big back to block for their halfback.
