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

The 49ers put a flag in the ground for Myles Cole, 47 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The Tampa pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick63 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa slipping to the 63rd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick94 Rnd3 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at the Round 3 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
No drama and no debate, Leonard Taylor III went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 35. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at slot 125 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
This one needs a full-page explanation: Luke McCaffrey in the 132nd pick, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick176 Rnd6 Myles Cole
They reached a country mile for Myles Cole at No. 176, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at Round 6, Pick 39 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick249 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
By-the-book stuff, Joshua Cephus at No. 249 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
