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

The 49ers bet big and early on Jackson Slater, 71 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Getting Brooks where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
A tidy bit of business in slot 33, where Colston Loveland graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jackson Slater
A big swing on Jackson Slater at No. 75, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick99 Rnd3 Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles in the 99th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at pick No. 112 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick138 Rnd4 Logan Brown
They went early on Logan Brown in Round 4, Pick 37, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139 Rnd4 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks at pick No. 139 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
They paid sticker price for Andres Borregales in Round 5, Pick 9, and that is fine. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick189 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
A real head-scratcher, Teddye Buchanan in the 189th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick228 Rnd7 Cooper Mays
Cooper Mays at the 228th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Shaun Dolac
Value said wait; Shaun Dolac in pick 232 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They jumped the gun on Shilo Sanders, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
