Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers robbed the room for Ingram-Dawkins. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins at the 252nd overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
They took Josh Simmons at par in the Round 1 slot, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at Round 2, Pick 11 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75 Rnd3 Tre Harris
A tidy bit of business in No. 75, where Tre Harris graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
The board fumbled Andrew Mukuba all the way to pick No. 100, and they scooped it up. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick113 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Quinn Ewers in the 113th overall pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd4 Chimere Dike
Circle this one: Chimere Dike at slot 138 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick147 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick 147 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in the 160th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jaydon Blue
They will replay Jaydon Blue at No. 227 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Que Robinson
Steal is underselling it; Que Robinson at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick252 Rnd7 Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins at slot 252 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
