Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick 249 lands the 49ers a B, Milum and all.

Call it larceny. Wyatt Milum sat on the board until Round 7, Pick 33, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the 11th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick43 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at the 43rd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Circle this one: Aireontae Ersery at pick 75 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
Steal is underselling it; Ashton Gillotte at slot 100 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick112 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick137 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
They barely believed it either: Dylan Fairchild still on the board at No. 137. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick186 Rnd6 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in pick No. 186 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick226 Rnd7 Kyle Kennard
They robbed the room for Kyle Kennard here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick230 Rnd7 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in pick No. 230 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Wyatt Milum
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Wyatt Milum in Round 7, Pick 33, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick254 Rnd7 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at pick 254 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
