Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA- FutureC
Best value of the weekend goes to the 49ers for Jones: B.

When a board-topper like Myles Jones slides to slot 252, you do not overthink it, and the 49ers did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. 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 interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Guyton at the 63rd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94 Rnd3 Blake Corum
A quiet steal in slot 94: Blake Corum for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick98 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
The board had Mike Sainristil higher than pick 98, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick131 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Nothing to complain about; Darius Robinson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Taking Jaylin Simpson in the 177th pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick209 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
Circle this one: Theo Wease Jr. at No. 209 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick213 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Josh Proctor graded well above the range. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley in Round 6, Pick 40 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick252 Rnd7 Myles Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Myles Jones reach No. 252 and blink. They did not. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
