FutureB
The 49ers cashed the board's mistake on Washington: B-. Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the 49ers were there to profit. Tahj Washington, the No. 188 name on the board, should have been long gone before No. 226. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If McCaffrey pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Nothing to complain about; Tyler Guyton went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick46
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in pick 46, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick52
Rnd2
Kingsley Suamataia
They paid a round early for Kingsley Suamataia in Round 2, Pick 20, more than the board wanted. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick124
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Theo Johnson at pick No. 124 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick131
Rnd4
Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in slot 131 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149
Rnd5
Josh Newton
The board fumbled Josh Newton all the way to No. 149, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick154
Rnd5
Jarrian Jones
Circle this one: Jarrian Jones at the 154th pick is a fall that decides a draft. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick176
Rnd6
Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at the 176th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick180
Rnd6
Jordan Jefferson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jordan Jefferson. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick211
Rnd6
Erick All
The board had Erick All higher than pick No. 211, and the tight end fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick215
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in pick 215 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick224
Rnd7
Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at the 224th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick226
Rnd7
Tahj Washington
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tahj Washington in the 226th overall pick, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick251
Rnd7
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett slid further than he should have, and Round 7, Pick 31 is lovely value for the linebacker. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
