Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Robinson: B-.

Call it larceny. Duce Robinson sat on the board until pick 194, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Lomu has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In the 23rd overall pick they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick54 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Somehow Caleb Banks was still sitting there in pick 54, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick87 Rnd3 Gabe Jacas
A reach on Gabe Jacas in slot 87; the board had better options right there. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
No edge and no loss on Charles Jagusah in the 122nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
A reasonable price with a little left over, Bray Hubbard in Round 4, Pick 37. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick139 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price at pick No. 139 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick140 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis at No. 140 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194 Rnd6 Duce Robinson
Duce Robinson in the Round 6 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
