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

The tape said wait; the 49ers did not. Marcus Harris went at Round 7, Pick 36, a good 71 picks before the board was ready. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. 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.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 11 they get an anchor for the defensive front, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey at the 43rd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger in pick No. 75 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100 Rnd3 Lathan Ransom
No edge and no loss on Lathan Ransom in the 100th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick113 Rnd4 Oluwafemi Oladejo
A real head-scratcher, Oluwafemi Oladejo in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
They liked Aeneas Peebles enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 138. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick147 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at pick 147 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
They went early on Jonah Monheim in No. 160, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick227 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
By-the-book stuff, Carson Vinson at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick249 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at pick No. 249 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick252 Rnd7 Marcus Harris
Marcus Harris at the 252nd pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
