Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The 49ers took JJ Pegues at the Round 4 slot, roughly 47 spots before his name belonged.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Getting Smith where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick 27 they get a disruptive interior force. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
A straight-up fair deal on JT Tuimoloau at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick54 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at the 54th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick64 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
They paid a round early for Maxwell Hairston in slot 64, more than the board wanted. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They paid sticker price for Jared Wilson in Round 3, Pick 36, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113 Rnd4 Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike at pick No. 113 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
Tyler Baron at the 129th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
A big swing on Ty Robinson at slot 136, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at Round 4, Pick 36 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Brashard Smith at pick 147. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick159 Rnd5 Caleb Rogers
This one needs a full-page explanation: Caleb Rogers in pick No. 159, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick160 Rnd5 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Value said wait; KeAndre Lambert-Smith in No. 160 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick197 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
Desmond Watson at the 197th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
