Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the 49ers for Rakestraw Jr.: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Ennis Rakestraw Jr. slide, and the 49ers were the ones holding the card at the 94th pick. Highway robbery.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. The 49ers indulged a want in Rakestraw Jr. while a need in running back, quarterback and other spots stayed open.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In slot 31 they get a ballhawk on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Fair-plus on Kingsley Suamataia, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in the 94th overall pick leaves running back, quarterback and other spots for later.
Pick98 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
They took McKinnley Jackson at par in No. 125, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick132 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in Round 4, Pick 32 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick176 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
No edge and no loss on Caedan Wallace in pick No. 176; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick209 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington slipping to the 209th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick214 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 214 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick215 Rnd6 Tanner McLachlan
By-the-book stuff, Tanner McLachlan at slot 215 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick249 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Somehow Tyler Owens was still sitting there in the 249th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
