Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the 49ers.

The 49ers' one glaring miss is running back, a need they left exactly as they found it.

The Iheanachor pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Endries falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Max Iheanachor
In slot 27 they get an anchor for the offensive line, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Good price on Gennings Dunker in No. 58, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Julian Neal
Julian Neal slipping to the 127th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Jack Endries at the Round 4 slot is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick138 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
They paid sticker price for Chris McClellan in pick No. 138, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
No drama and no debate, CJ Daniels went about where he belonged in pick 139. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
