Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the 49ers a A-.

The 49ers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Sai'vion Jones at pick 75 regardless, 65 picks early.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Winston Jr.. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jihaad Campbell
In pick 24 they get the heartbeat of the defense, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Derrick Harmon in No. 43. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 Sai'vion Jones
They reached a country mile for Sai'vion Jones at slot 75, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick97 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 33 with a little surplus value in Charles Grant. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in the 100th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Deone Walker
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick139 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Value said wait; Kyle Williams in pick 139 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in the 147th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick160 Rnd5 Robert Longerbeam
They reached into another round for Robert Longerbeam, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick227 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at pick No. 227 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
You do not let a running back like Kyle Monangai reach No. 249 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252 Rnd7 Warren Brinson
Warren Brinson at the 252nd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
