Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the 49ers, and a C+ to match.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the 49ers would have aced it. Kaimon Rucker at Round 4, Pick 11 is 37 spots clear of where he belonged. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Moore.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 20th overall pick they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at pick No. 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A conviction pick on Charles Grant at slot 75 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at No. 85 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jared Wilson. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick113 Rnd4 Kaimon Rucker
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kaimon Rucker well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at the 138th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick147 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Nice patience on Malachi Moore, who had no business lasting to the Round 5 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick160 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
They went early on Ajani Cornelius in pick 160, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick191 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They let Dont'e Thornton Jr. come to them and pounced at the 191st overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at No. 227 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They talked themselves into Shilo Sanders at Round 7, Pick 33, and the board did not agree. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick252 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns at pick No. 252 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
