Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers let Simpson fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Jaylin Simpson sat on the board until the 215th overall pick, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
You do not let a wide receiver like Rome Odunze reach slot 32 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick64 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Payton Wilson at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Circle this one: Johnny Wilson at pick 95 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick98 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
They took Blake Fisher at par in pick No. 98, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Dillon Johnson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dillon Johnson at the 132nd overall pick is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick177 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in No. 177 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick210 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Christian Jones at the 210th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jared Wiley in Round 6, Pick 38. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in slot 215 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
They barely believed it either: Jase McClellan still on the board at Round 7, Pick 33. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
