The 49ers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

2026 NFL Draft

· 3 reaches
They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Josh Cameron, 45 picks early at Round 4, Pick 39. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick-by-Pick
In slot 27 they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Fair-plus on Jake Slaughter, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Beau Stephens at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
A reach on Isaiah World in pick 133; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
They took Jakobe Thomas at par in the 138th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
They reached a country mile for Josh Cameron at Round 4, Pick 39, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
