Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the 49ers.

The 49ers torched the value chart for Max Iheanachor, taking him 52 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

They banked enough surplus on Slaughter to cover a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Hit on Max Iheanachor and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Max Iheanachor
In slot 27 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Julian Neal
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Julian Neal well ahead of where he belonged. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 92 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick127 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
No drama and no debate, CJ Daniels went about where he belonged in the 127th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick133 Rnd4 Febechi Nwaiwu
They talked themselves into Febechi Nwaiwu at No. 133, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick138 Rnd4 Marlin Klein
A big swing on Marlin Klein at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard in the 171st overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
