Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers won the night they stopped Fashanu from sliding. Grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Olumuyiwa Fashanu, the No. 8 name on the board, stolen at pick 31. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 31st pick they get protection for the quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at slot 63 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick94 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Khyree Jackson at the 94th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at pick 124 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick131 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Matt Goncalves at Round 4, Pick 31. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick133 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They let Johnny Wilson come to them and pounced at pick No. 133. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner in the Round 6 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick211 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
The board fumbled M.J. Devonshire all the way to No. 211, and they scooped it up. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick215 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs is a better player than the 215th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick251 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at the 251st pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
