FutureB-
The 49ers let Winston Jr. fall and pounced. Final grade: B-. When a board-topper like Kevin Winston Jr. slides to slot 138, you do not overthink it, and the 49ers did not.
If Pegues pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In the 27th pick they get a wrecking ball inside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at slot 43 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick59
Rnd2
Maxwell Hairston
They liked Maxwell Hairston enough to skip the value, taking him in the 59th overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick75
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
A conviction pick on Ozzy Trapilo at Round 3, Pick 11 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at No. 99 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick112
Rnd4
Smael Mondon Jr.
They did well to land Smael Mondon Jr. in pick 112, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128
Rnd4
Jamaree Caldwell
By-the-book stuff, Jamaree Caldwell at pick No. 128 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick138
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick139
Rnd4
JJ Pegues
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for JJ Pegues. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick No. 148 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189
Rnd6
Kyle Monangai
The board had cheaper options than Kyle Monangai at Round 6, Pick 11, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jack Kiser
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jack Kiser in the 228th overall pick, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232
Rnd7
Clay Webb
Clay Webb at No. 232 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick255
Rnd7
Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. in the 255th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
