Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The 49ers turned the phones into found money: B+.

The Gabe Hall selection is the head-turner. The 49ers reached 88 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

The Newton steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

The Jones pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback and linebacker still on the board. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton is a better player than No. 33 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick51 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at pick 51 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick63 Rnd2 Michael Hall Jr.
Value said wait; Michael Hall Jr. in Round 2, Pick 31 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick84 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Nice patience on Mike Sainristil, who had no business lasting to slot 84. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jermaine Burton in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick101 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A wild overpay on Javon Foster in the 101st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick124 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Elijah Jones in the Round 4 slot leaves quarterback and linebacker for later.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jaylen Harrell
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaylen Harrell this early at Round 4, Pick 31. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick133 Rnd4 Gabe Hall
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gabe Hall well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick178 Rnd6 Josh Newton
Josh Newton in pick No. 178 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick179 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 179th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick211 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joshua Cephus. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick215 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Frank Gore Jr. at No. 215, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Devin Culp
A real head-scratcher, Devin Culp in pick 251 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
