The 49ers let Smith fall into their laps, and walked away with a B. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The 49ers watched Ainias Smith slide 20 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Marshall Jr. reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
JC Latham
In slot 26 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58
Rnd2
Sedrick Van Pran
A straight-up fair deal on Sedrick Van Pran at pick No. 58, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick98
Rnd3
Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. at No. 98 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick126
Rnd4
Joe Milton III
No drama and no debate, Joe Milton III went about where he belonged in pick 126. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick177
Rnd6
Ainias Smith
The board fumbled Ainias Smith all the way to the 177th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
