Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall
B-

FutureD-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the 49ers a B-. The VJ Payne selection is the head-turner. The 49ers reached 45 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Jones steal is the beam this whole class leans on.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Chris Brazzell II
In pick 27 they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
They paid sticker price for Dillon Thieneman in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick58
Rnd2
Christen Miller
By-the-book stuff, Christen Miller at the 58th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette in slot 75 is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jude Bowry
They reached into another round for Jude Bowry, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111
Rnd4
Logan Jones
You do not let an offensive lineman like Logan Jones reach pick No. 111 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick127
Rnd4
Kaytron Allen
They reached a country mile for Kaytron Allen at No. 127, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133
Rnd4
Joe Royer
A tidy little value on Joe Royer in pick 133, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick146
Rnd5
Beau Stephens
They paid a round early for Beau Stephens in the Round 5 slot, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149
Rnd5
VJ Payne
VJ Payne in pick No. 149 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
