FutureB
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B. Some picks age like wine; J. Michael Sturdivant at the Round 7 slot will need to, sitting 29 spots clear of his grade. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Kenyon Sadiq
In the 30th overall pick they get a matchup weapon at tight end at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick58
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Taking Dillon Thieneman in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick92
Rnd3
Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez in slot 92 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108
Rnd4
Caden Curry
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Caden Curry. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127
Rnd4
Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge at pick 127 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133
Rnd4
Ted Hurst
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ted Hurst in pick No. 133, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138
Rnd4
J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis in the 138th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick171
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
The board had Davison Igbinosun higher than No. 171, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick251
Rnd7
J. Michael Sturdivant
Value said wait; J. Michael Sturdivant in pick 251 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
