FutureD-
The 49ers went off-script early, and it cost them a F. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the 49ers started one anyway for Elijah Roberts, 67 picks ahead of schedule. There is no dressing it up: a F.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Thornton Jr..
It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Josh Conerly Jr.
They talked themselves into Josh Conerly Jr. at pick 15, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
They robbed the room for Kenneth Grant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick40
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Nice patience on Jalon Walker, who had no business lasting to the Round 2 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick41
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
A clean, defensible pick in the 41st overall pick with a little surplus value in Jihaad Campbell. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick43
Rnd2
Shavon Revel Jr.
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 43 is the definition of value, full stop. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick46
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
The board fumbled Emeka Egbuka all the way to pick No. 46, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick79
Rnd3
Dylan Sampson
Value with a capital V on Dylan Sampson in slot 79, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89
Rnd3
Oluwafemi Oladejo
They left a pile of value on the table to take Oluwafemi Oladejo this early at pick No. 89. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick113
Rnd4
Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at pick 113 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick138
Rnd4
Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at the 138th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the 147th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick160
Rnd5
Seth McLaughlin
No edge and no loss on Seth McLaughlin in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick214
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Circle this one: Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 214 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick242
Rnd7
Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson in Round 7, Pick 26 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
