Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall

FutureC+
The 49ers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Oluwafemi Oladejo at slot 138 is 102 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
The Williams steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The 49ers paired the rookies with proven help, Evan Engram leading the way.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In No. 12 they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick30
Rnd1
Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Nothing to complain about; Tyler Booker went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
A premium they did not need to pay, Andrew Mukuba a notch or two before his time. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick 100 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113
Rnd4
Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the 113th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jacob Parrish
By-the-book stuff, Jacob Parrish at No. 122 squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick138
Rnd4
Oluwafemi Oladejo
This one needs a full-page explanation: Oluwafemi Oladejo in the Round 4 slot, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick147
Rnd5
Emery Jones Jr.
The board fumbled Emery Jones Jr. all the way to slot 147, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick160
Rnd5
Jake Briningstool
They paid sticker price for Jake Briningstool in pick 160, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick227
Rnd7
Barryn Sorrell
They reached into another round for Barryn Sorrell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick249
Rnd7
Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at the 249th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
