Ct DRAFTING FOR THE49ers

FutureA
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the 49ers spent slot 43 on Cam Skattebo, a name most had 56 spots down the list. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Felton. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Mykel Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Cam Skattebo
They reached a country mile for Cam Skattebo at the 43rd pick, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75
Rnd3
Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at the 75th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick80
Rnd3
Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 80 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick100
Rnd3
Lathan Ransom
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Lathan Ransom. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick113
Rnd4
Cody Simon
Cody Simon in slot 113 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117
Rnd4
Tai Felton
Tai Felton at No. 117 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138
Rnd4
Mitchell Evans
No edge and no loss on Mitchell Evans in Round 4, Pick 36; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick147
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
By-the-book stuff, Pat Bryant at pick 147 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick151
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
They paid sticker price for O'Donnell Fortune in slot 151, and that is fine. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick160
Rnd5
Seth McLaughlin
No drama and no debate, Seth McLaughlin went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick227
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson in the 227th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick249
Rnd7
Ty Hamilton
A straight-up fair deal on Ty Hamilton at the 249th pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick252
Rnd7
Shemar James
Shemar James at pick No. 252 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
