The Nadame Tucker selection is the head-turner. The 49ers reached 39 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Davis. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.
They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.
So much rides on Dillon Thieneman that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 27 they get a rangy last line of defense at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Keyron Crawford well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
They read the board right and Tacario Davis was the payoff at the Round 4 slot. It adds depth where they could use a little.
A big swing on Beau Stephens at Round 4, Pick 33, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Nadame Tucker this early at pick 138. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Kaleb Proctor in the 139th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
