Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The 49ers worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: DJ Uiagalelei, 59 picks early at pick 249. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Landing Winston Jr. that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

In the end it comes back to Mykel Williams, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Mykel Williams at slot 32. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They went early on Charles Grant in pick 75, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at Round 3, Pick 32 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A reach for Cam Skattebo in No. 100; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick113 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. slipping to the 113th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick138 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Nice patience on Dorian Strong, who had no business lasting to No. 138. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick147 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans at the 147th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick160 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
They did well to land Luke Kandra in the 160th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick161 Rnd5 Elijah Roberts
They reached a country mile for Elijah Roberts at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick227 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They took Isaac TeSlaa at par in pick 227, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick249 Rnd7 DJ Uiagalelei
Value said wait; DJ Uiagalelei in slot 249 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick252 Rnd7 Nick Martin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nick Martin well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
