Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the 49ers: B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the 49ers would have aced it. Ethan Downs at No. 183 is 88 spots clear of where he belonged.

The Rourke steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
Nic Scourton at the 29th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
By-the-book stuff, Jihaad Campbell at pick 43 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick55 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in No. 55 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at Round 3, Pick 11 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ozzy Trapilo. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A offensive lineman of that caliber at slot 100 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 113th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick128 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at pick No. 128 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick138 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Somehow Savion Williams was still sitting there in No. 138, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick147 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Taking Brashard Smith in the 147th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick160 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
The board fumbled Billy Bowman Jr. all the way to slot 160, and they scooped it up. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill slid further than he should have, and pick 166 is lovely value for the cornerback. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick176 Rnd5 Que Robinson
A big swing on Que Robinson at Round 5, Pick 38, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick183 Rnd6 Ethan Downs
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ethan Downs in the 183rd pick, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick199 Rnd6 Kurtis Rourke
Circle this one: Kurtis Rourke at No. 199 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick203 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in Round 6, Pick 27 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick205 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
Steal is underselling it; Cobee Bryant at the Round 6 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick227 Rnd7 Upton Stout
They robbed the room for Upton Stout here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick236 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They barely believed it either: KeAndre Lambert-Smith still on the board at the 236th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick241 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at slot 241 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They will replay Cam Jackson at pick 249 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick252 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
Good price on Cody Lindenberg in the 252nd overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
