Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the 49ers: B-.

The 49ers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jay Toia at slot 252 regardless, 107 picks early. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Bowman Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
They liked Marcus Mbow enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 43. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
A real head-scratcher, Kyle Kennard in slot 49 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jack Bech
A tidy bit of business in the 75th pick, where Jack Bech graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick79 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
A straight-up fair deal on Barrett Carter at the 79th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tyler Baron
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Baron in pick No. 100, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick113 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
No drama and no debate, Joshua Farmer went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 11. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
They reached into another round for JJ Pegues, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick187 Rnd6 Carson Vinson
A wild overpay on Carson Vinson in the 187th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They paid sticker price for Isaac TeSlaa in No. 226, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick230 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
The board had Trevor Etienne higher than slot 230, and the running back fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
Nothing to complain about; Donovan Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jay Toia
Jay Toia at the 252nd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
