Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers land in the muddy middle: C+.

The 49ers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Antonio Kite at slot 138 regardless, 44 picks early.

The Pierce pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Kite pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with wide receiver, running back and other spots still on the board.

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

If Trevor Goosby and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Trevor Goosby
In pick 27 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Payton Pierce
They robbed the room for Payton Pierce here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick92 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
Value said wait; Kade Pieper in Round 3, Pick 28 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Boubacar Traore
Boubacar Traore in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick133 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
They took DJ McKinney at par in pick No. 133, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick138 Rnd4 Antonio Kite
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Antonio Kite adds a cornerback and leaves wide receiver, running back and other spots untouched.
Pick171 Rnd5 Raylen Wilson
They jumped the gun on Raylen Wilson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
