FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the 49ers. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Monroe Freeling at the Round 3 slot, a reach of 35 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.
A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick40
Rnd2
LT Overton
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on LT Overton. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Nothing to complain about; Jake Slaughter went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74
Rnd3
Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling in pick 74 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92
Rnd3
Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis in the 92nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick105
Rnd4
Caden Curry
Fair-plus on Caden Curry, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick109
Rnd4
Zachariah Branch
They paid sticker price for Zachariah Branch in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick127
Rnd4
Hezekiah Masses
They took Hezekiah Masses at par in No. 127, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick171
Rnd5
Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in the 171st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
