FutureB-
The phones sank the 49ers this weekend: D. You can hear the double-takes from here. The 49ers took Logan Brown at Round 3, Pick 12, roughly 70 spots before his name belonged.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Landing Lachey that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.
The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 30 they get an enforcer at safety at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick33
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Walter Nolen at slot 33. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick43
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Fair-plus on Tyler Booker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick50
Rnd2
Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in the 50th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick51
Rnd2
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at Round 2, Pick 19 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick62
Rnd2
Kaleb Johnson
The board had Kaleb Johnson higher than the Round 2 slot, and the running back fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75
Rnd3
Charles Grant
The board had cheaper options than Charles Grant at Round 3, Pick 11, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick76
Rnd3
Logan Brown
Logan Brown at the Round 3 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
They paid sticker price for Jared Wilson in the 100th overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander slipping to the 113th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips is a better player than pick No. 122 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick138
Rnd4
Cody Simon
Good price on Cody Simon in No. 138, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick147
Rnd5
Hollin Pierce
They let Hollin Pierce come to them and pounced at slot 147. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick151
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
Nothing to complain about; Pat Bryant went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick160
Rnd5
Damien Martinez
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 160 with a little surplus value in Damien Martinez. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
Somehow Malachi Moore was still sitting there in No. 171, and they pounced on premier safety value. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick204
Rnd6
Karene Reid
No drama and no debate, Karene Reid went about where he belonged in pick 204. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227
Rnd7
Alijah Huzzie
A slide stopped in Round 7, Pick 11, with Alijah Huzzie worth more than the price. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick249
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
They will replay Luke Lachey at the 249th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick252
Rnd7
Zeek Biggers
Zeek Biggers at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
