Draft Grade — 49ers

The 49ers lost the trade table, and the D tells the story. The 49ers torched the value chart for Kingsley Eguakun, taking him 48 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It grades a D, and the process earned it.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The Jones pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback and edge rusher still on the board.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On value alone, Abrams-Draine makes the weekend a net positive.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick 20 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick31
Rnd1
Adonai Mitchell
In the 31st pick they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Worthy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick63
Rnd2
Christian Haynes
They paid sticker price for Christian Haynes in Round 2, Pick 31, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick84
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Michael Hall Jr. at the 84th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick93
Rnd3
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in slot 93. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick94
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Trey Benson in pick 94 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick113
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in the 113th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick124
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
They did well to land Blake Fisher in Round 4, Pick 24, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick130
Rnd4
Luke McCaffrey
They left a pile of value on the table to take Luke McCaffrey this early at No. 130. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick131
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback and edge rusher to take Jarrian Jones, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick133
Rnd4
Sione Vaki
A surprising call. With quarterback and edge rusher still to address, they spent the Round 4 slot on Sione Vaki, a safety they were not short of.
Pick176
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
They read the board right and Dwight McGlothern was the payoff at pick No. 176. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick211
Rnd6
Erick All
Erick All at the 211th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick215
Rnd6
Jaylan Ford
A tidy bit of business in slot 215, where Jaylan Ford graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251
Rnd7
Kingsley Eguakun
Kingsley Eguakun at Round 7, Pick 31 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
