Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the 49ers started one anyway for Jontrey Hunter, 22 picks ahead of schedule. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

That Dial pick is the receipt they will wave around later. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In the 31st overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They did well to land T'Vondre Sweat in slot 63, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
A straight-up fair deal on Blake Fisher at pick 94, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick98 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in the 98th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They took Cedric Gray at par in No. 132, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick176 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Frank Gore Jr.. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick209 Rnd6 Marcellas Dial
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Marcellas Dial in the 209th pick. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick214 Rnd6 Ryan Watts
They went early on Ryan Watts in slot 214, and the value did not follow. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jontrey Hunter
A wild overpay on Jontrey Hunter in the 215th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kedon Slovis
A premium they did not need to pay, Kedon Slovis a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
