Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The 49ers robbed the room for Ransom. Final grade: A-.

The 49ers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Lathan Ransom, the No. 105 name on the board, in Round 5, Pick 9. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Dalton Risner gives the group a proven body among the projects.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick25 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In slot 25 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Derrick Harmon at the 43rd overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
They read the board right and Chris Paul Jr. was the payoff at pick 89. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Nice patience on Danny Stutsman, who had no business lasting to pick No. 100. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick113 Rnd4 Miles Frazier
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Miles Frazier. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Shough at the 138th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick147 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
A safety of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 9 is the definition of value, full stop. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick160 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
The board had O'Donnell Fortune higher than Round 5, Pick 22, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick227 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
Taking Oronde Gadsden II in No. 227 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa is a better player than the 249th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
