Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers cashed the board's mistake on Milum: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The 49ers watched Wyatt Milum slide 216 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 11 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Taking Walter Nolen in Round 2, Pick 11 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Armand Membou
They barely believed it either: Armand Membou still on the board at pick 75. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in the 98th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at the 100th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick138 Rnd4 Ashton Jeanty
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Ashton Jeanty in slot 138, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick187 Rnd6 Cam Ward
Cam Ward at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Trey Amos
Somehow Trey Amos was still sitting there in pick No. 249, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick252 Rnd7 Wyatt Milum
Steal is underselling it; Wyatt Milum at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
