Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the 49ers: B.

The Chase Bisontis selection is the head-turner. The 49ers reached 42 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The Slaughter pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In the 30th overall pick they get a disruptive interior force. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Somehow Jake Slaughter was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick62 Rnd2 Ian Strong
They paid up for Ian Strong at Round 2, Pick 30 when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick85 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
They talked themselves into Chase Bisontis at slot 85, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
They paid sticker price for Monroe Freeling in pick No. 123, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
A reach for J.C. Davis in No. 135; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd4 Justin Joly
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Justin Joly. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick140 Rnd4 Sammy Omosigho
They liked Sammy Omosigho enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 4 slot. It fills a real need, too.
