Good, not great, for the 49ers: B.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The 49ers did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to wide receiver, which was the need that mattered most.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In slot 27 they get protection for the quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 LT Overton
By-the-book stuff, LT Overton at pick 58 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Sam Hecht
Nothing to complain about; Sam Hecht went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
