Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers won the night they stopped Worthy from sliding. Grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Xavier Worthy tumbling to the 49ers in Round 3, Pick 31 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. They are betting Bortolini proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick No. 31 they get a disruptor off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A clean, defensible pick in the 63rd pick with a little surplus value in Kingsley Suamataia. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick94 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
They will replay Xavier Worthy at Round 3, Pick 31 for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick98 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
Caelen Carson in the 98th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick125 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in pick 125 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at No. 132 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick176 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
A reach for Tanor Bortolini in slot 209; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick214 Rnd6 Tyrice Knight
No drama and no debate, Tyrice Knight went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick215 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They paid sticker price for Josh Proctor in slot 215, and that is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick249 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
Nothing to complain about; LaDarius Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
