Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the 49ers, and a B- to prove it.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the 49ers shredded theirs for Robbie Ouzts. He came off 25 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. On value alone, Williams makes the weekend a net positive. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 11 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at Round 2, Pick 11 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A clean, defensible pick in the 75th pick with a little surplus value in Andrew Mukuba. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick99 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick 99 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in No. 112 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick138 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
A tidy little value on Darius Alexander in slot 138, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
A quiet steal in pick 139: O'Donnell Fortune for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick189 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
They took JJ Pegues at par in No. 189, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick228 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
Taking Kyle Williams in pick No. 228 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
They liked Marcus Yarns enough to skip the value, taking him in the 232nd pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick255 Rnd7 Robbie Ouzts
A big swing on Robbie Ouzts at Round 7, Pick 37, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
