Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Barron: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jahdae Barron, the No. 13 name on the board, stolen at Round 5, Pick 1. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Smith pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
Nice patience on Travis Hunter, who had no business lasting to pick No. 11. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick43 Rnd2 Mike Green
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Mike Green in No. 43, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in the 75th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Armand Membou
Circle this one: Armand Membou at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
They robbed the room for Wyatt Milum here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron in Round 5, Pick 1 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick139 Rnd5 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at the 139th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick 189 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick228 Rnd7 Tim Smith
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tim Smith in pick 228, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick232 Rnd7 Shemar Turner
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Shemar Turner reach pick No. 232 and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Cody Simon
The board fumbled Cody Simon all the way to slot 255, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
