Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Nobody else had Mitchell Melton anywhere near the 172nd overall pick. The 49ers did, by 141 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Love. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In No. 27 they get a lead back with juice, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in pick 58 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at the 92nd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick127 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Nice patience on Zachariah Branch, who had no business lasting to pick No. 127. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick133 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
A quiet steal in slot 133: Charles Jagusah for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd4 Max Iheanachor
They took Max Iheanachor at par in Round 4, Pick 39, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172 Rnd5 Mitchell Melton
Mitchell Melton at No. 172 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
