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

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Malachi Lawrence at slot 94 is 43 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Emmanuel Pregnon
In pick 27 they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Darrell Jackson Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darrell Jackson Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94 Rnd3 Malachi Lawrence
Value said wait; Malachi Lawrence in the 94th overall pick says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at Round 4, Pick 27 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick133 Rnd4 Max Iheanachor
A reach for Max Iheanachor in No. 133; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick168 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
They took Pat Coogan at par in pick No. 168, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick251 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
They reached into another round for Roman Hemby, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
