Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers let Hart fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like Cam Hart slides to the 215th pick, you do not overthink it, and the 49ers did not. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They are betting Bennett Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kingsley Suamataia in the 59th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
A straight-up fair deal on Brenden Rice at pick No. 90, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
No edge and no loss on Payton Wilson in No. 98; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A tidy bit of business in pick 127, where Khyree Jackson graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick177 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at slot 177 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick213 Rnd6 Landon Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Landon Jackson at the 213th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick215 Rnd6 Cam Hart
Cam Hart in slot 215 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick248 Rnd7 Chico Bennett Jr.
Chico Bennett Jr. in pick No. 248 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
