Draft Grade — 49ers

The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Monangai: B.

Call it larceny. Kyle Monangai sat on the board until pick No. 249, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In pick No. 11 they get a long-term starter on the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Shavon Revel Jr. at Round 2, Pick 11. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jared Ivey. It fills a real need, too.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tai Felton
Tai Felton at pick 100 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at the 113th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick138 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
A tidy little value on Brashard Smith in slot 138, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick147 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
No edge and no loss on Luke Kandra in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick160 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at the 160th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick227 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
They will replay Luke Lachey at the 227th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
They barely believed it either: Kyle Monangai still on the board at the Round 7 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in No. 252 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
