Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the 49ers.

The war room fell hard for Dont'e Thornton Jr., and it showed at No. 138: 36 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The Hamilton value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 11th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
No drama and no debate, Jonah Savaiinaea went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A real head-scratcher, Charles Grant in slot 75 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick99 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
The board had Gunnar Helm higher than the 99th overall pick, and the tight end fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick112 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kevin Winston Jr. at No. 112 is the proof. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick138 Rnd4 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dont'e Thornton Jr.. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd4 Kobe King
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kobe King at Round 4, Pick 38. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Fair-plus on Mitchell Evans, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick189 Rnd6 Addison West
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Addison West. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at the 228th pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick232 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
A slide stopped in slot 232, with Theo Wease Jr. worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
They read the board right and Ty Hamilton was the payoff at the 255th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
