FutureC
The 49ers turned the phones into found money: B. The real work happened on the phones. The 49ers fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.
The cost of the Jones Jr. reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Edwards steal is the beam this whole class leans on.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a green-dot type in the middle. A real need, handled.
Pick33
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
A tidy little value on Derrick Harmon in the 33rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick43
Rnd2
Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen at the 43rd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 57 is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
They let TreVeyon Henderson come to them and pounced at pick 67. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick75
Rnd3
Cameron Williams
Good price on Cameron Williams in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 94 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick146
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
A clean, defensible pick in No. 146 with a little surplus value in Tyler Shough. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147
Rnd5
Jonas Sanker
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jonas Sanker at the Round 5 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick151
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at No. 151 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick160
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
They talked themselves into Willie Lampkin at the 160th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick166
Rnd5
Damien Martinez
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Damien Martinez at slot 166 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick169
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in pick No. 169 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170
Rnd5
Oronde Gadsden II
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Oronde Gadsden II well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick173
Rnd5
CJ West
CJ West in Round 5, Pick 35 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick177
Rnd6
Jason Marshall Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jason Marshall Jr. in the 177th pick, miles early. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick189
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in slot 189 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick198
Rnd6
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the 198th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick216
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
A reach on Isaac TeSlaa in No. 216; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick227
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
The board fumbled Donovan Edwards all the way to pick 227, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick249
Rnd7
Nick Martin
They left a pile of value on the table to take Nick Martin this early at pick No. 249. The roster fit checks out.
