The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The 49ers put a flag in the ground for Willie Lampkin, 33 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
The Walker pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a matchup weapon at tight end at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In No. 27 they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75
Rnd3
Darien Porter
By-the-book stuff, Darien Porter at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick89
Rnd3
Charles Grant
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Charles Grant. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo slipping to pick No. 100 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113
Rnd4
Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at Round 4, Pick 11 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
No edge and no loss on Tyler Shough in slot 147; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin in No. 148 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick160
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
They talked themselves into JJ Pegues at the 160th pick, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169
Rnd5
Clay Webb
This one needs a full-page explanation: Clay Webb in pick No. 169, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick213
Rnd6
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at pick 213 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick227
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in the 227th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
