A solid, sensible weekend for the 49ers: B-. There is reaching, and then there is Matt Gulbin at pick 139. The 49ers jumped the board by 43 and dared it to prove them wrong. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Dillon Thieneman
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a downhill hitter at safety. More want than need.
Pick42
Rnd2
Zion Young
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zion Young. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick80
Rnd3
Keylan Rutledge
A straight-up fair deal on Keylan Rutledge at pick 80, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick115
Rnd4
Tacario Davis
A tidy little value on Tacario Davis in pick No. 115, a step better than break-even. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick133
Rnd4
Trey Zuhn III
A reasonable price with a little left over, Trey Zuhn III in No. 133. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138
Rnd4
Kaytron Allen
They paid up for Kaytron Allen at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139
Rnd4
Matt Gulbin
Matt Gulbin in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211
Rnd6
Riley Nowakowski
They went early on Riley Nowakowski in slot 211, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
