Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the 49ers: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with JJ Pegues at pick 138, a reach of 47 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 25th overall pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at slot 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at pick No. 58 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in the 75th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tai Felton
By-the-book stuff, Tai Felton at pick 100 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in Round 4, Pick 11 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
They reached a country mile for JJ Pegues at slot 138, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West at Round 5, Pick 9 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jason Marshall Jr.
A big swing on Jason Marshall Jr. at No. 160, well ahead of any board in the building. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick227 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa at pick 227 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick249 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick252 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
This one needs a full-page explanation: Xavier Truss in the 252nd pick, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
