Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the 49ers a B-.

The 49ers torched the value chart for Sam Hecht, taking him 28 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. The Lance value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In pick No. 27 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Sam Hecht
Sam Hecht at Round 2, Pick 26 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92 Rnd3 Anthony Lucas
The board had cheaper options than Anthony Lucas at slot 92, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
A clean, defensible pick in No. 127 with a little surplus value in Parker Brailsford. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance slipping to the 133rd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138 Rnd4 Hezekiah Masses
Hezekiah Masses is a better player than the Round 4 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick171 Rnd5 Albert Regis
Albert Regis at Round 5, Pick 33 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
