Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The 49ers took Jackson Slater a full 48 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Josh Conerly Jr.
In pick No. 11 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at slot 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A tidy little value on Maxwell Hairston in the 75th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jackson Slater
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jackson Slater in No. 100, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in the Round 4 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick138 Rnd4 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in pick 138 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick147 Rnd5 Que Robinson
They reached a country mile for Que Robinson at pick No. 147, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West at slot 160 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick227 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Craig Woodson at Round 7, Pick 11. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick249 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Thomas Fidone II. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick252 Rnd7 Brady Cook
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Brady Cook. It fills a real need, too.
