Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the 49ers a B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Malik Washington at the Round 3 slot. The 49ers jumped the board by 22 and dared it to prove them wrong.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Dial.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 31 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia slipping to the 63rd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
They took Tyler Davis at par in the 94th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick98 Rnd3 Malik Washington
This one needs a full-page explanation: Malik Washington in Round 3, Pick 35, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick132 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in No. 132 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick176 Rnd6 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A quiet steal in slot 176: Dadrion Taylor-Demerson for less than the market said. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick209 Rnd6 Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial at No. 209 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick214 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in the 214th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
A straight-up fair deal on Jawhar Jordan at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
A premium they did not need to pay, Nathaniel Watson a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
