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, the 185th pick, roughly 82 picks past where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Reaching for Fleming left real value on the table behind him. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mason Graham
Mason Graham in pick 11 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick43 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
They paid a round early for Marcus Mbow in Round 2, Pick 11, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They did well to land Omarr Norman-Lott in the 75th pick, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick99 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at slot 99 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Value said wait; Jared Wilson in No. 111 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick137 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in pick No. 137 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick185 Rnd6 Mason Taylor
They barely believed it either: Mason Taylor still on the board at the Round 6 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick226 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
Cody Lindenberg at the 226th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick230 Rnd7 Maxen Hook
The board had cheaper options than Maxen Hook at pick No. 230, and it noticed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick249 Rnd7 Julian Fleming
Julian Fleming at pick 249 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick255 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
They will replay Marcus Yarns at the 255th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
