Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers let Milroe fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jalen Milroe, the No. 94 name on the board, stolen at the 147th pick.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. Reaching for Buchanan left real value on the table behind him.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In pick 11 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in Round 2, Pick 11 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in pick No. 75 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Nothing to complain about; Darius Alexander went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick113 Rnd4 Charles Grant
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 113th pick is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jalen Milroe
You do not let a quarterback like Jalen Milroe reach slot 147 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick160 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Value said wait; Dont'e Thornton Jr. in No. 160 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick227 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the 227th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
No drama and no debate, Cody Lindenberg went about where he belonged in No. 249. The roster fit checks out.
Pick252 Rnd7 Logan Parr
They paid a round early for Logan Parr in the 252nd pick, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
