The 49ers cashed the board's mistake on Hardy: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Daequan Hardy, the No. 217 name on the board, stolen at No. 252.

If Carter pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In pick No. 31 they get a blindside protector at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Blake Corum
They liked Blake Corum enough to skip the value, taking him in the 63rd pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Nice patience on Mike Sainristil, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 31. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick98 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the 98th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Travis at slot 131 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
A reach on Isaiah Williams in No. 177; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick209 Rnd6 Ja'Had Carter
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ja'Had Carter in the Round 6 slot, miles early. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick213 Rnd6 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones in pick 213 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick215 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
No edge and no loss on Darius Muasau in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick252 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Somehow Daequan Hardy was still sitting there in slot 252, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
