FutureB
The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. Nobody else had Nadame Tucker anywhere near pick 138. The 49ers did, by 39 spots, and that gap is the whole story. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
Landing Roush that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.
Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick47
Rnd2
Malachi Lawrence
No drama and no debate, Malachi Lawrence went about where he belonged in slot 47. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58
Rnd2
Germie Bernard
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Germie Bernard. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick85
Rnd3
Michael Taaffe
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Taaffe at pick No. 85 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick113
Rnd4
Sam Roush
A tight end of that caliber at pick 113 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127
Rnd4
Kaleb Proctor
Kaleb Proctor at the 127th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133
Rnd4
Drew Allar
This one needs a full-page explanation: Drew Allar in the 133rd pick, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick135
Rnd4
Isaiah World
They went early on Isaiah World in pick 135, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138
Rnd4
Nadame Tucker
They reached a country mile for Nadame Tucker at slot 138, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick139
Rnd4
Trey Zuhn III
They read the board right and Trey Zuhn III was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 39. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161
Rnd5
Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick254
Rnd7
Eli Heidenreich
No edge and no loss on Eli Heidenreich in No. 254; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
