Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the 49ers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The 49ers took Bear Alexander at pick 139, roughly 121 spots before his name belonged. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Beck. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 24 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Connor Lew
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 56, where Connor Lew graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Max Klare
A slide stopped in the 88th overall pick, with Max Klare worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick124 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling in slot 124 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
Nothing to complain about; DJ McKinney went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick139 Rnd4 Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander at the 139th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick140 Rnd4 Carson Beck
Carson Beck in No. 140 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
