The 49ers did enough to get by: C+. The 49ers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 236th pick on Jalen Travis a full 51 spots early.
However the rest shakes out, Johnson at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.
Hit on Mike Green and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Mike Green
In No. 20 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
Circle this one: Walter Nolen at pick 41 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick43
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
You do not let a safety like Nick Emmanwori reach the Round 2 slot and blink. They did not. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick72
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in the 72nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond at pick No. 75 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick76
Rnd3
Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in the 76th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick100
Rnd3
Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo in the 100th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick113
Rnd4
Jeffrey Bassa
They liked Jeffrey Bassa enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 113. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick138
Rnd4
Logan Brown
Logan Brown at slot 138 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at the 147th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick148
Rnd5
Tez Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Tez Johnson at pick 148 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160
Rnd5
CJ West
A real head-scratcher, CJ West in pick No. 160 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jaydon Blue
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jaydon Blue in Round 6, Pick 15. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick208
Rnd6
Jason Marshall Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jason Marshall Jr. in the Round 6 slot. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick227
Rnd7
Nick Martin
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nick Martin. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick233
Rnd7
Carson Vinson
Good price on Carson Vinson in pick 233, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jalen Travis
Value said wait; Jalen Travis in No. 236 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick240
Rnd7
Marcus Yarns
They reached into another round for Marcus Yarns, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
