Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Every other box got a look, but wide receiver did not. The 49ers will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

The Fuaga value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Reaching for Mahogany left real value on the table behind him.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In slot 31 they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at the Round 2 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick94 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter in No. 94 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick98 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marshawn Kneeland. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick132 Rnd4 Johnny Dixon
Good price on Johnny Dixon in pick 132, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick176 Rnd6 Jaylen Wright
A tidy bit of business in the 176th overall pick, where Jaylen Wright graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick209 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner in Round 6, Pick 34 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick214 Rnd6 Omar Brown
Nice patience on Omar Brown, who had no business lasting to pick No. 214. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick215 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Fair-plus on Christian Jones, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa in pick No. 249 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
