Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The 49ers worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Drew Kendall, 126 picks early at the Round 5 slot.

Getting Shough where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 19 they get a disruptive interior force. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick30 Rnd1 Armand Membou
They let Armand Membou come to them and pounced at Round 1, Pick 30. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Benjamin Morrison. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick81 Rnd3 Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo in the 81st pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jaylin Noel
A tidy little value on Jaylin Noel in the 100th overall pick, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Chris Paul Jr. reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the 113th pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick119 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Billy Bowman Jr. in the Round 4 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick135 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in slot 135 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at pick No. 138 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick147 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
A big swing on Vernon Broughton at No. 147, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Drew Kendall
A wild overpay on Drew Kendall in pick 160, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Steal is underselling it; Brashard Smith at Round 5, Pick 32 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick218 Rnd7 Karene Reid
Karene Reid is a better player than the 218th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick227 Rnd7 Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb at the 227th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Quinn Carroll
They talked themselves into Quinn Carroll at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Tyler Shough
Circle this one: Tyler Shough at slot 249 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick252 Rnd7 Ricky White III
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ricky White III in No. 252, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
