Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the 49ers for Scott: B-.

The 49ers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Keionte Scott, the No. 62 name on the board, in the Round 3 slot. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. They are betting Bisontis proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Chase Bisontis
A conviction pick on Chase Bisontis at pick 58 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick92 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 92 is the definition of value, full stop. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick127 Rnd4 Malik Benson
They jumped the gun on Malik Benson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
Jakobe Thomas in the 133rd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick138 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at slot 138 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick171 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner in the 171st overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
