FutureB-
Larceny in the 239th pick lands the 49ers a B+, Mafah and all. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Phil Mafah, the No. 171 name on the board, stolen at the Round 7 slot. No fireworks, but a solid B+.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. The cost of the Dellinger reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Spending an early pick on safety with quarterback, tight end and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Armand Membou
In pick 23 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick28
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
A slide stopped in the 28th pick, with Walter Nolen worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick35
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori slid further than he should have, and No. 35 is lovely value for the safety. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Somehow Jalon Walker was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick100
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ozzy Trapilo at slot 100. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick102
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, tight end and other spots to take Andrew Mukuba, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick113
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Danny Stutsman in pick No. 113, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick147
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at Round 5, Pick 9 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick160
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
They talked themselves into JJ Pegues at the 160th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick227
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Taking Donovan Edwards in the 227th pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick239
Rnd7
Phil Mafah
Circle this one: Phil Mafah at pick No. 239 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick249
Rnd7
Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick252
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
A wild overpay on Garrett Dellinger in Round 7, Pick 36, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
