Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 134th overall pick: the 49ers steal Sorsby and grade out a B.

The 49ers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Brendan Sorsby fell into slot 134. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The 49ers indulged a want in Smith while a need in running back, interior defensive lineman and other spots stayed open. The Smith pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a matchup problem out wide, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
A slide stopped in pick No. 91, with Malik Muhammad worth more than the price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick126 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at the 126th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick134 Rnd4 Brendan Sorsby
The board fumbled Brendan Sorsby all the way to pick 134, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick139 Rnd4 Eugene Wilson III
A clean, defensible pick in the 139th pick with a little surplus value in Eugene Wilson III. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick140 Rnd4 Isaac Smith
A surprising call. With running back, interior defensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent slot 140 on Isaac Smith, a safety they were not short of.
