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

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The 49ers spent pick No. 132 on Myles Cole, a name the board had a full 91 spots lower.

However the rest shakes out, Melton at that price is a win they earned. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick63 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
They paid a round early for Sedrick Van Pran in Round 2, Pick 31, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick94 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick 94 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick123 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
They took McKinnley Jackson at par in No. 123, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick130 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd in the 130th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132 Rnd4 Myles Cole
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Myles Cole well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the S-EDGE. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick211 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
They liked Frank Gore Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in the 211th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick215 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym at No. 215 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They did well to land LaDarius Henderson in Round 7, Pick 31, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
