Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the 49ers: B-.

The 49ers spent real capital to be 30 picks early on Theo Johnson, and the board is going to hold them to it. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

Washington falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The 49ers indulged a want in Williams while a need in interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots stayed open.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In the 31st pick they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
They did well to land Javon Bullard in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick94 Rnd3 Theo Johnson
Value said wait; Theo Johnson in pick No. 94 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
No drama and no debate, Johnny Wilson went about where he belonged in pick 124. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick131 Rnd4 James Williams
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 131 on James Williams with interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick133 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
No edge and no loss on Roger Rosengarten in No. 133; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick176 Rnd6 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at pick No. 176 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Somehow Tahj Washington was still sitting there in the 211th pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick215 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All is a better player than No. 215 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick251 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
You do not let a linebacker like Tatum Bethune reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
