Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD FutureA
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Bru McCoy at No. 230 is 73 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Bassa. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 24 they get a disruptive interior force, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They reached into another round for Donovan Jackson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
A running back of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Taking Andrew Mukuba in pick 97 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick99 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Demetrius Knight Jr. reach the 99th pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111 Rnd4 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in Round 4, Pick 10 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 137th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick176 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
No drama and no debate, Cobee Bryant went about where he belonged in slot 176. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at pick 185 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick226 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in the 226th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick230 Rnd7 Bru McCoy
They reached a country mile for Bru McCoy at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
