Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureD-
The 49ers won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: J'Mari Taylor in Round 5, Pick 9, a good 46 spots before the room expected him. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Landing Payne that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The Thomas pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with wide receiver, quarterback and other spots still on the board.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in the 27th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick127 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
Chris McClellan at pick 127 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick133 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
Value with a capital V on Bishop Fitzgerald in the Round 4 slot, a genuine coup. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick138 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
They bypassed pressing needs at wide receiver, quarterback and other spots to take Jakobe Thomas, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick147 Rnd5 Charles Demmings
No edge and no loss on Charles Demmings in Round 5, Pick 7; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick149 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor in the 149th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick223 Rnd7 VJ Payne
They will replay VJ Payne at Round 7, Pick 7 for years; that is how good the value is. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
