Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall D-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The 49ers bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

The 49ers went off the board in a big way for Jake Slaughter, 64 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

The Tyrann Mathieu pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Emery Jones
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at the 36th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jordan Hancock
They took Jordan Hancock at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick68 Rnd3 Tory Horton
A straight-up fair deal on Tory Horton at pick 68, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jonah Monheim
They went early on Jonah Monheim in No. 127, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
No drama and no debate, Jaeden Roberts went about where he belonged in pick No. 159. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at No. 191 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jordan James
They did well to land Jordan James in pick No. 223, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
