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 Trevor Keegan a full 36 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Jacobs value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In slot 31 they get a double-digit-sack hope. A real need, handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 31 with a little surplus value in Chris Braswell. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick98 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
They paid sticker price for Khyree Jackson in No. 98, and that is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick132 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in pick No. 132 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A reach for Ben Sinnott in the 135th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They robbed the room for Curtis Jacobs here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at pick No. 215 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick249 Rnd7 Isaac Guerendo
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Isaac Guerendo. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
