Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Chase Lundt at pick No. 139. The 49ers jumped the board by 34 and dared it to prove them wrong.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. On value alone, Williams makes the weekend a net positive.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 11th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
They went early on Harold Fannin Jr. in pick No. 43, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They did well to land Andrew Mukuba in the 75th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick99 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They paid sticker price for Charles Grant in slot 99, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in No. 112 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
A slide stopped in pick 138, with O'Donnell Fortune worth more than the price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick139 Rnd4 Chase Lundt
A real head-scratcher, Chase Lundt in the 139th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Addison West
A reach on Addison West in pick No. 189; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick228 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the Round 7 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick232 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
The board fumbled Kyle Williams all the way to the 232nd overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick255 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
The board had Marcus Yarns higher than Round 7, Pick 37, and the running back fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
