Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the 49ers: B-.

The 49ers put a flag in the ground for Isaiah Nwokobia, 34 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Golday steal is the beam this whole class leans on. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor in pick No. 27 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick63 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
They went early on Max Iheanachor in Round 2, Pick 31, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jake Golday
You do not let an edge rusher like Jake Golday reach slot 92 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick125 Rnd4 Logan Jones
No drama and no debate, Logan Jones went about where he belonged in the 125th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Skyler Gill-Howard
They liked Skyler Gill-Howard enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 127. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick133 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
They paid sticker price for Tim Keenan III in pick 133, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138 Rnd4 Nadame Tucker
They reached a country mile for Nadame Tucker at No. 138, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick144 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
They jumped the gun on Aaron Graves, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
A reach on Xavier Nwankpa in the Round 5 slot; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick171 Rnd5 Isaiah Nwokobia
A wild overpay on Isaiah Nwokobia in pick 171, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
