Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the 49ers, and a B- to prove it.

Nobody had Tim Keenan III this high, and it is not close. The 49ers reached 29 spots to get him at the 126th overall pick. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. The Allen pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In pick No. 26 they get a cornerstone up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 CJ Allen
Nice patience on CJ Allen, who had no business lasting to No. 57. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Caleb Tiernan
They did well to land Caleb Tiernan in pick 91, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tim Keenan III. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford in the 134th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg at slot 139 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
DJ McKinney is a better player than pick No. 140 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
