test DRAFTING FOR THE49ers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall
B
ValueA
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The 49ers bet the future on Ward. The board says B. You build a draft on nights like this. Josaiah Stewart had no business being available in the Round 7 slot, and the 49ers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
Cam Ward gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Cam Ward
In the 11th overall pick they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Grey Zabel
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Grey Zabel at pick No. 43 is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75
Rnd3
Ashton Jeanty
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 75 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100
Rnd3
Armand Membou
Circle this one: Armand Membou at pick 100 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113
Rnd4
Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick138
Rnd4
Jihaad Campbell
They barely believed it either: Jihaad Campbell still on the board at Round 4, Pick 36. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick147
Rnd5
Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at No. 147 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick160
Rnd5
Tre Harris
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tre Harris in slot 160, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick227
Rnd7
Alfred Collins
Somehow Alfred Collins was still sitting there in the 227th overall pick, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick249
Rnd7
Trey Amos
Steal is underselling it; Trey Amos at the 249th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick252
Rnd7
Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart at slot 252 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
