For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The 49ers walked out of the weekend still thin at running back, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took McCoy. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 27th overall pick they get a press-man option on the boundary at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in pick 58 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
A tidy little value on Jude Bowry in slot 127, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
DeMonte Capehart at the 133rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
CJ Daniels in Round 4, Pick 38 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Eli Raridon. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
