Draft Grade — 49ers

TradesA-
FutureB
The 49ers won the night they stopped James from sliding. Grade: B+. You build a draft on nights like this. Jordan James had no business being available in the 232nd overall pick, and the 49ers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.
They are betting Jackson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In pick 11 they get a featured back, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick53
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
A big swing on Donovan Jackson at the 53rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick84
Rnd3
Jake Majors
They talked themselves into Jake Majors at Round 3, Pick 20, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick99
Rnd3
Joshua Farmer
Value said wait; Joshua Farmer in slot 99 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick112
Rnd4
Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in the 112th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick113
Rnd4
Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in pick No. 113 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138
Rnd4
Terrance Ferguson
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Terrance Ferguson graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139
Rnd4
Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. in No. 139 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick147
Rnd5
Anthony Belton
Circle this one: Anthony Belton at pick No. 147 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick189
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Good price on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 189th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick228
Rnd7
Brandon Adams
Brandon Adams in the 228th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jordan James
They robbed the room for Jordan James here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick255
Rnd7
Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls at the Round 7 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
