Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers let Harvey fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The 49ers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and RJ Harvey fell into the 255th overall pick. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Every board in the league had Pegues lower, and that gap is the story. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 11 they get a disruptive interior force. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Tyler Warren in Round 2, Pick 11, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick85 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at pick No. 85 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick99 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
They robbed the room for Isaiah Bond here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick112 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick 112 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick118 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. is a better player than the Round 4 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
The board had cheaper options than Jamaree Caldwell at slot 121, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick138 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Taking Sebastian Castro in the 138th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick139 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
Value with a capital V on Jeffrey Bassa in Round 4, Pick 38, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick148 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
They reached a country mile for JJ Pegues at pick No. 148, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick189 Rnd6 Kyle Monangai
A reach on Kyle Monangai in No. 189; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Ricky White III
They barely believed it either: Ricky White III still on the board at the 228th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Clay Webb
Clay Webb in the Round 7 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick255 Rnd7 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at pick 255 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
