Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers robbed the room for Hardy. Final grade: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The 49ers watched Daequan Hardy slide 37 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

They will need All to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick No. 31 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter in the 63rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick94 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
A straight-up fair deal on Brenden Rice at Round 3, Pick 31, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick123 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
No edge and no loss on McKinnley Jackson in slot 123; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
No drama and no debate, Mohamed Kamara went about where he belonged in pick 130. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick132 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
They reached into another round for Trevor Keegan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick175 Rnd5 Erick All
They left a pile of value on the table to take Erick All this early at No. 175. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick211 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at the 211th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick215 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Frank Gore Jr. a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick232 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy at pick No. 232 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick251 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A real head-scratcher, Sam Hartman in pick 251 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
