Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Thomas should have been long gone. The 49ers pounced, and earned a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Noah Thomas at the Round 4 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Alexander reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 31 they get a load in the middle at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
A tidy bit of business in No. 63, where Josh Conerly Jr. graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III at pick 95 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick127 Rnd4 Noah Thomas
Steal is underselling it; Noah Thomas at Round 4, Pick 31 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Zy Alexander
They paid up for Zy Alexander at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jaheim Oatis
They paid sticker price for Jaheim Oatis in pick No. 191, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 223rd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
