The 49ers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the 49ers shredded theirs for David Walker. He came off 34 spots early, and the room will hear about it. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That Grant pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Trey Amos
They took Trey Amos at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick75 Rnd3 David Walker
David Walker at the 75th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant is a better player than No. 100 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at the 113th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138 Rnd4 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in slot 138 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at No. 147 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick160 Rnd5 Que Robinson
Que Robinson in Round 5, Pick 22 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick227 Rnd7 Desmond Watson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Desmond Watson. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick249 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
They paid sticker price for Zeek Biggers in pick 249, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick252 Rnd7 Brady Cook
A real head-scratcher, Brady Cook in the 252nd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
