Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall

FutureB
The 49ers robbed the room for Fitzgerald. Final grade: C+. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ryan Fitzgerald, the No. 107 name on the board, stolen at the Round 7 slot. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.
Griffith has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
If Jahdae Barron and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Jahdae Barron
In the 15th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. More want than need.
Pick20
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In pick 20 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick75
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Deone Walker in the 75th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick80
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 80 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick99
Rnd3
Luke Kandra
No drama and no debate, Luke Kandra went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 35. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116
Rnd4
Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at the Round 4 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick161
Rnd5
Kevin Winston Jr.
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kevin Winston Jr. in slot 161, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick187
Rnd6
Brashard Smith
Somehow Brashard Smith was still sitting there in No. 187, and they pounced on premier running back value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225
Rnd7
Ryan Fitzgerald
They robbed the room for Ryan Fitzgerald here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick226
Rnd7
James Burnip
James Burnip in the 226th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick229
Rnd7
Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at No. 229 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick230
Rnd7
Jared Wilson
Circle this one: Jared Wilson at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick232
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
This one needs a full-page explanation: Thor Griffith in pick No. 232, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245
Rnd7
Clay Webb
Taking Clay Webb in Round 7, Pick 29 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249
Rnd7
Karene Reid
Karene Reid in the 249th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick255
Rnd7
Elijhah Badger
Elijhah Badger at pick 255 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
