Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The 49ers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Drew Kendall at Round 7, Pick 36 regardless, 42 picks early.

The Lachey value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In No. 11 they get an anchor for the defensive front, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jihaad Campbell in the 43rd overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A wild overpay on Darius Alexander in pick No. 75, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Nice patience on Savion Williams, who had no business lasting to the 100th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
A conviction pick on Cobee Bryant at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick138 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
No drama and no debate, Malachi Moore went about where he belonged in slot 138. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick147 Rnd5 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland at the 147th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick160 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in pick 160 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick227 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick249 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
A straight-up fair deal on Zeek Biggers at slot 249, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Drew Kendall
Drew Kendall at Round 7, Pick 36 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
