Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall

NeedA-
TradesF
FutureC
The 49ers bled value on every deal, hence the D-. The 49ers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Sam Hartman at the 249th pick regardless, 34 picks early.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Washington value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
Jaylon Johnson gives the group a proven body among the projects.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the 9th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Troy Fautanu at Round 2, Pick 4. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick40
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
They paid up for T'Vondre Sweat at the 40th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94
Rnd3
Dominick Puni
A tidy little value on Dominick Puni in No. 94, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125
Rnd4
Andru Phillips
Andru Phillips at pick No. 125 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick132
Rnd4
Nelson Ceaser
They paid a round early for Nelson Ceaser in the Round 4 slot, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick209
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
They jumped the gun on Frank Gore Jr., taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick214
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
No drama and no debate, Jaylen Harrell went about where he belonged in the 214th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
Steal is underselling it; Tahj Washington at pick 215 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick249
Rnd7
Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
