The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The 49ers put a flag in the ground for Parker Brailsford, 28 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. Landing Boettcher that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick35
Rnd2
Mansoor Delane
Mansoor Delane in No. 35 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick61
Rnd2
Kamari Ramsey
Value with a capital V on Kamari Ramsey in the 61st overall pick, a genuine coup. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick77
Rnd3
Max Klare
Max Klare in slot 77 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick95
Rnd3
Parker Brailsford
A real head-scratcher, Parker Brailsford in Round 3, Pick 31 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick101
Rnd4
Blake Miller
This one needs a full-page explanation: Blake Miller in pick No. 101, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick136
Rnd4
Kage Casey
A premium they did not need to pay, Kage Casey a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138
Rnd4
DeMonte Capehart
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on DeMonte Capehart. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick142
Rnd5
Jyaire Hill
Jyaire Hill slid further than he should have, and Round 5, Pick 3 is lovely value for the cornerback. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick148
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173
Rnd5
Noah Fifita
No drama and no debate, Noah Fifita went about where he belonged in the 173rd pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick179
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
They let Bryce Boettcher come to them and pounced at slot 179. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick205
Rnd6
James Smith
James Smith at pick 205 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick222
Rnd7
Pat Coogan
A conviction pick on Pat Coogan at No. 222 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick253
Rnd7
Brandon Inniss
A quiet steal in pick No. 253: Brandon Inniss for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
