Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA FutureA-
Grand theft in Round 7, Pick 11: the 49ers steal Tuten and grade out a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Bhayshul Tuten had no business being available in the 227th overall pick, and the 49ers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The cost of the Lachey reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jihaad Campbell
In pick No. 15 they get a green-dot type in the middle, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Trey Amos
No edge and no loss on Trey Amos in the 43rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick75 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darius Alexander well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick80 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch at No. 80 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in pick 113 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
Value said wait; Luke Lachey in slot 138 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Joshua Farmer in the 147th pick, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams at the 151st pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick160 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
They robbed the room for Bhayshul Tuten here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jaylin Lane
Taking Jaylin Lane in No. 249 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jacory Croskey-Merritt
A real head-scratcher, Jacory Croskey-Merritt in Round 7, Pick 36 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
