FutureB+
The 49ers let Brooks fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Tahj Brooks, the No. 122 name on the board, stolen at the Round 6 slot.
The Griffith pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 14 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
No edge and no loss on Jonah Savaiinaea in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Donovan Jackson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Value with a capital V on Deone Walker in the 76th overall pick, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
No drama and no debate, Jared Wilson went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 36. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Carson Schwesinger
The board fumbled Carson Schwesinger all the way to No. 113, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117
Rnd4
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
They talked themselves into Antwaun Powell-Ryland at pick 117, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick138
Rnd4
Ozzy Trapilo
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 138th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147
Rnd5
Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at Round 5, Pick 9 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick149
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
A big swing on JJ Pegues at pick No. 149, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick187
Rnd6
Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks at No. 187 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick211
Rnd6
Cobee Bryant
They robbed the room for Cobee Bryant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick226
Rnd7
Ricky White III
Taking Ricky White III in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick230
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
A straight-up fair deal on Teddye Buchanan at slot 230, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick249
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at pick 249 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252
Rnd7
Nick Martin
They jumped the gun on Nick Martin, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
