The phones sank the 49ers this weekend: D. There is reaching, and then there is Ty Robinson at Round 4, Pick 15. The 49ers jumped the board by 53 and dared it to prove them wrong. The math is unkind, and the D follows.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
They banked enough surplus on Nolen to cover a lot of smaller sins.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
Nice patience on Walter Nolen, who had no business lasting to pick No. 34. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick63
Rnd2
Kyle Kennard
Kyle Kennard at slot 63 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick66
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
The board had Jayden Higgins higher than No. 66, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A quiet steal in the 75th overall pick: Donovan Jackson for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Jared Wilson at the 99th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
A tidy bit of business in No. 100, where Cam Skattebo graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick114
Rnd4
Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones at pick 114 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick117
Rnd4
Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson in the 117th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138
Rnd4
Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts in Round 4, Pick 36 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
They paid a round early for O'Donnell Fortune in pick No. 147, more than the board wanted. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick149
Rnd5
Que Robinson
Value said wait; Que Robinson in the 149th pick says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They paid up for Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 169 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173
Rnd5
DJ Giddens
A straight-up fair deal on DJ Giddens at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick206
Rnd6
Nazir Stackhouse
A conviction pick on Nazir Stackhouse at Round 6, Pick 30 that the board grades a round light. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick227
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at pick No. 227 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick249
Rnd7
Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris in the 249th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
