Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureA
The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Pegues: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: JJ Pegues, the No. 187 name on the board, stolen at the 232nd pick. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Every board in the league had Jackson lower, and that gap is the story.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 24th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Steal is underselling it; Jalon Walker at the 51st overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They jumped the gun on Donovan Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick85 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A tidy little value on Darien Porter in Round 3, Pick 21, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick97 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They paid sticker price for Savion Williams in slot 97, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick99 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
The board fumbled Omarr Norman-Lott all the way to No. 99, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Ajani Cornelius
By-the-book stuff, Ajani Cornelius at pick No. 112 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Circle this one: Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick164 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
They robbed the room for LeQuint Allen here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in the 189th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick232 Rnd7 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at slot 232 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier is a better player than Round 7, Pick 37 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
