Darien DRAFTING FOR THE49ers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesB-
FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the 49ers a B-. Everything else got attention, and running back got none. That is a strange way for the 49ers to leave a draft. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Joshua Josephs
In pick 27 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58
Rnd2
A.J. Haulcy
They took A.J. Haulcy at par in pick No. 58, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick92
Rnd3
Gabe Jacas
A straight-up fair deal on Gabe Jacas at Round 3, Pick 28, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127
Rnd4
J.C. Davis
Good price on J.C. Davis in slot 127, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick133
Rnd4
Jaden Greathouse
Jaden Greathouse at No. 133 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138
Rnd4
David Oke
No drama and no debate, David Oke went about where he belonged in the 138th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171
Rnd5
Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in the 171st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
