Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick 132: the 49ers steal Jackson and grade out a B-.

The board owed the 49ers one, and it paid up: Khyree Jackson, the No. 105 name on the board, sitting there at No. 132 like a gift left on the doorstep. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The Jackson pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots still on the board. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 32 they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick64 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at Round 2, Pick 32 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick95 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Roman Wilson at pick No. 95 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick98 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
By-the-book stuff, Blake Fisher at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick132 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the 132nd overall pick on Khyree Jackson, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick177 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in pick 177 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
They took Jawhar Jordan at par in the 210th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick213 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Josh Proctor in slot 213, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in pick 215 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick253 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
They let Joshua Cephus come to them and pounced at pick No. 253. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
