Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers let Amos fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Trey Amos got past him. The 49ers do not have to explain a thing at Round 7, Pick 38. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
The board had Travis Hunter higher than No. 11, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick43 Rnd2 Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen in pick 43 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
Steal is underselling it; Walter Nolen at slot 75 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick100 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 36 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick137 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at the 137th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 186 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Logan Brown
You do not let an offensive lineman like Logan Brown reach pick No. 230 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick249 Rnd7 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick254 Rnd7 Trey Amos
Taking Trey Amos in pick 254 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
