Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The 49ers won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The 49ers clearly saw something nobody else did in JJ Pegues, taking him 47 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

The Williams pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Adding Pat Surtain II by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 20th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant slipping to the 33rd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board had Jalon Walker higher than No. 34, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick43 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Nice patience on Malaki Starks, who had no business lasting to pick No. 43. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick49 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
No edge and no loss on Aireontae Ersery in pick 49; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
By-the-book stuff, Jayden Higgins at Round 2, Pick 19 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick85 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
A reasonable price with a little left over, Barrett Carter in No. 85. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick99 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A conviction pick on Cam Skattebo at slot 99 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
They robbed the room for Cameron Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
A wild overpay on Jackson Slater in pick No. 113, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
They reached into another round for JJ Pegues, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick147 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
They did well to land Tyler Shough in the 147th pick, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick191 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
A straight-up fair deal on Oronde Gadsden II at the 191st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. in pick 197 is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick219 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
A reach for Isaac TeSlaa in slot 219; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
They let Jordan Hancock come to them and pounced at the 227th overall pick. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick249 Rnd7 Nick Martin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nick Martin well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick252 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
They will replay Phil Mafah at Round 7, Pick 36 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
