Ziti13 DRAFTING FOR THE49ers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall

FutureB-
The 49ers kept it disciplined and banked a B-. Nobody had Kenyatta Jackson Jr. this high, and it is not close. The 49ers reached 35 spots to get him at the 90th overall pick. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The Ponds pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with offensive lineman chief among the fixes.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Gennings Dunker
In the 26th pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick59
Rnd2
Brian Parker II
Brian Parker II in the Round 2 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick90
Rnd3
Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kenyatta Jackson Jr.. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick127
Rnd4
D'Angelo Ponds
The board had D'Angelo Ponds higher than No. 127, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick133
Rnd4
Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch slid further than he should have, and pick No. 133 is lovely value for the wide receiver. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138
Rnd4
Terry Moore
Terry Moore in Round 4, Pick 38 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick171
Rnd5
Connor Tollison
Connor Tollison at the 171st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
