Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall
B

FutureB-
The 49ers kept it disciplined and banked a B. For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The 49ers walked out of the weekend still thin at running back, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
The Freeling pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That Rutledge pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Chris Bell
In slot 27 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jake Slaughter at pick 58. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92
Rnd3
Caden Curry
A reach for Caden Curry in the Round 3 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick96
Rnd3
Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at the 96th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick127
Rnd4
Skyler Gill-Howard
They took Skyler Gill-Howard at par in pick No. 127, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick133
Rnd4
Keylan Rutledge
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 33, where Keylan Rutledge graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
