Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 147th overall pick lands the 49ers a B, Mondon Jr. and all.

The 49ers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Smael Mondon Jr. fell into No. 147. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Lampkin has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
Kelvin Banks Jr. at the 11th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick43 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Nick Emmanwori in the 43rd overall pick, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick75 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at No. 75 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke at Round 3, Pick 36 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick113 Rnd4 Tahj Brooks
They paid up for Tahj Brooks at pick No. 113 when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138 Rnd4 Willie Lampkin
They reached a country mile for Willie Lampkin at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at pick 147. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick187 Rnd6 Howard Cross III
They talked themselves into Howard Cross III at slot 187, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
A reach on Seth McLaughlin in pick 226; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick230 Rnd7 Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Brady Cook
A wild overpay on Brady Cook in Round 7, Pick 33, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jeremy Crawshaw
The board had Jeremy Crawshaw higher than slot 252, and the specialist fell to them anyway. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
