Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the 49ers: B-.

The 49ers clearly saw something nobody else did in Bryce Foster, taking him 31 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Jackson Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 27 they get an island corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick58 Rnd2 Trevor Goosby
Trevor Goosby at No. 58 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick89 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
The board fumbled Darrell Jackson Jr. all the way to the 89th pick, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128 Rnd4 Deion Burks
Circle this one: Deion Burks at pick No. 128 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick136 Rnd4 Demond Claiborne
No drama and no debate, Demond Claiborne went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 36. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick141 Rnd4 Terrance Carter Jr.
No edge and no loss on Terrance Carter Jr. in the 141st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180 Rnd5 Braylan Shelby
They reached into another round for Braylan Shelby, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick196 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
A big swing on Bryce Foster at Round 6, Pick 16, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
