Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Sam Hecht in the 58th pick, a good 27 spots before the room expected him.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Landing Lawson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Gennings Dunker
In pick 27 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Sam Hecht
A wild overpay on Sam Hecht in pick No. 58, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
A quiet steal in No. 92: Deontae Lawson for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They took Ar'maj Reed-Adams at par in Round 4, Pick 27, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in the 133rd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick138 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing J.C. Davis in slot 138. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Reggie Virgil
Reggie Virgil slipping to the 171st overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
