Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueD- NeedA- TradesB+ FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the 49ers: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Isaiah World at Round 2, Pick 28, a reach of 78 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Orange pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Omar Cooper Jr.
In the 27th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Isaiah World
Isaiah World in the Round 2 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange slid further than he should have, and slot 92 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick127 Rnd4 Nadame Tucker
They reached a country mile for Nadame Tucker at Round 4, Pick 27, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Good price on Harold Perkins Jr. in pick 129, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick133 Rnd4 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan in No. 133 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick138 Rnd4 Reggie Virgil
This one needs a full-page explanation: Reggie Virgil in the 138th pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
