Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall

ValueB
NeedB
TradesB-
FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the 49ers a B-. The war room fell hard for Bud Clark, and it showed at No. 171: 37 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Banks pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Kenyon Sadiq
In the 27th pick they get a matchup weapon at tight end, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick58
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
Value with a capital V on Caleb Banks in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92
Rnd3
Omar Cooper Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Omar Cooper Jr. at Round 3, Pick 28. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick127
Rnd4
Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis in the 127th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick133
Rnd4
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They paid sticker price for Ar'maj Reed-Adams in pick No. 133, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138
Rnd4
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in slot 138 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick171
Rnd5
Bud Clark
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Bud Clark. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
