Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the 49ers: B-.

The Sam Hartman pick is the one that will follow the 49ers into the fall. They took him 33 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Spending an early pick on cornerback with running back, interior defensive lineman and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The Rosemy-Jacksaint pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick63 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
A conviction pick on Cooper Beebe at the 63rd pick that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick94 Rnd3 DJ James
A curious use of the 94th overall pick. Running back, interior defensive lineman and other spots needed the pick; a cornerback in DJ James did not.
Pick98 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They did well to land Javon Foster in No. 125, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
The board had Cedric Gray higher than pick No. 132, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick176 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
They jumped the gun on Tahj Washington, taking him earlier than his grade liked. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick209 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in the 209th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214 Rnd6 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
A premium they did not need to pay, Javontae Jean-Baptiste a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick215 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
This one needs a full-page explanation: Andrew Raym in the Round 6 slot, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at Round 7, Pick 29 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
