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

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the 49ers were there to profit. Will Echoles, the No. 14 name on the board, should have been long gone before No. 64.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick64 Rnd2 Will Echoles
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Will Echoles reach pick No. 64 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick96 Rnd3 Greg Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Greg Johnson at the 96th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick133 Rnd4 J'Koby Williams
J'Koby Williams in the 133rd overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick155 Rnd5 Drake Lindsey
A tidy little value on Drake Lindsey in No. 155, a step better than break-even. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170 Rnd5 Mateen Ibirogba
Fair-plus on Mateen Ibirogba, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick208 Rnd6 King Mack
King Mack at Round 6, Pick 29 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick252 Rnd7 Donovan Jones
Donovan Jones at pick 252 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
