Draft Grade — 49ers

The 49ers cashed the board's mistake on Skattebo: B.

The board owed the 49ers one, and it paid up: Cam Skattebo, the No. 110 name on the board, sitting there at Round 7, Pick 10 like a gift left on the doorstep.

Davis has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the 11th overall pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Good price on Tyler Booker in the 43rd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in slot 75, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick99 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in pick No. 99 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
They will replay Tez Johnson at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick137 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at pick 137 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick185 Rnd6 Andres Borregales
You do not let a specialist like Andres Borregales reach Round 6, Pick 10 and blink. They did not. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick226 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at No. 226 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick No. 230 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249 Rnd7 Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II at the 249th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick255 Rnd7 Fred Davis
Value said wait; Fred Davis in Round 7, Pick 39 says they were not listening. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
