Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers robbed the room for Taylor. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Mason Taylor, pick 185, roughly 89 picks past where he belonged.

The cost of the Caldwell reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 11 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Nice patience on Derrick Harmon, who had no business lasting to the 43rd overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Somehow Jihaad Campbell was still sitting there in the 75th pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick99 Rnd3 Dillon Gabriel
A conviction pick on Dillon Gabriel at pick 99 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick137 Rnd4 Vernon Broughton
They paid sticker price for Vernon Broughton in Round 4, Pick 36, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick185 Rnd6 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at pick No. 185 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Taking Jack Kiser in No. 226 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick230 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
A running back of that caliber at pick 230 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249 Rnd7 Nick Martin
Nick Martin at the 249th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
A wild overpay on Jamaree Caldwell in pick No. 255, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
