Tackle Ted DRAFTING FOR THE49ers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall

FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the 49ers: B-. The war room fell hard for Monroe Freeling, and it showed at the 87th overall pick: 33 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.
Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Jake Slaughter
A reach for Jake Slaughter in the 23rd overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick54
Rnd2
Austin Barber
They jumped the gun on Austin Barber, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87
Rnd3
Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at No. 87 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick122
Rnd4
DeMonte Capehart
They reached a country mile for DeMonte Capehart at slot 122, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick138
Rnd4
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They paid up for Ar'maj Reed-Adams at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139
Rnd4
Kage Casey
Kage Casey at the 139th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick140
Rnd4
Austin Romaine
Austin Romaine at the 140th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
