The 49ers went off-script early, and it cost them a F. The Lance Heard selection is the head-turner. The 49ers reached 54 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. A weekend to file away and forget, and an F to match.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The 49ers indulged a want in Cole while a need in quarterback, tight end and other spots stayed open. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
On value alone, Little Jr. makes the weekend a net positive. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.
There is no soft landing here: they fought the board and left quarterback open, and the grade is the bill.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Kade Pieper
In No. 30 they get a blindside protector, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Justin Scott
Justin Scott slid further than he should have, and the 33rd overall pick is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick34
Rnd2
Lance Heard
A real head-scratcher, Lance Heard in pick No. 34 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick35
Rnd2
Chris Cole
A want over a need in slot 35: Chris Cole adds a linebacker while quarterback, tight end and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick62
Rnd2
Reed Harris
Reed Harris at Round 2, Pick 30 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick94
Rnd3
LJ Martin
Value said wait; LJ Martin in the Round 3 slot says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick167
Rnd5
Earl Little Jr.
Earl Little Jr. in No. 167 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick195
Rnd6
Braelin Moore
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Braelin Moore at the 195th overall pick is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251
Rnd7
Addison Nichols
This one needs a full-page explanation: Addison Nichols in the Round 7 slot, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
