Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB- TradesD+ FutureB+
The 49ers landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

Nobody had Easton Dean this high, and it is not close. The 49ers reached 237 spots to get him at pick No. 248. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. That Zinter pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

So much rides on Josh Newton that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Josh Newton
By-the-book stuff, Josh Newton at the 27th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at Round 3, Pick 27 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick98 Rnd3 Troy Fautanu
They liked Troy Fautanu enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 98. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at No. 127 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick177 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All in pick No. 177 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick205 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at the 205th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick213 Rnd6 Storm Duck
A conviction pick on Storm Duck at pick 213 that the board grades a round light. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick215 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
This one needs a full-page explanation: LaDarius Henderson in Round 6, Pick 40, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick248 Rnd7 Easton Dean
They reached a country mile for Easton Dean at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick254 Rnd7 Roger Rosengarten
Value said wait; Roger Rosengarten in pick No. 254 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
