Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers let Marks fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Woody Marks had no business being available in No. 249, and the 49ers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Every board in the league had Riley lower, and that gap is the story.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
Shemar Stewart in the 11th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at Round 2, Pick 11 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
No drama and no debate, Donovan Jackson went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at No. 100 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
A tidy little value on Jared Wilson in slot 113, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138 Rnd4 Nick Nash
They paid sticker price for Nick Nash in pick 138, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans at the 147th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley in pick No. 160 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick227 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A reach on Teddye Buchanan in pick 227; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick249 Rnd7 Woody Marks
They will replay Woody Marks at the 249th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 252 is the definition of value, full stop. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
