Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
More right than wrong for the 49ers, and a B- to prove it.

The 49ers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending Round 7, Pick 37 on Sean Martin a full 125 spots early.

Farmer falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 14th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick55 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
No edge and no loss on Isaiah Bond in the 55th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones at pick No. 75 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick86 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 22 with a little surplus value in Donovan Jackson. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jacob Parrish
They reached into another round for Jacob Parrish, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
They paid up for Jeffrey Bassa at No. 112 when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Luke Lachey well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick138 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
They will replay Anthony Belton at the 138th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick139 Rnd4 David Walker
David Walker at slot 139 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick148 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
They robbed the room for Joshua Farmer here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Upton Stout slipping to pick No. 189 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick228 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
Value with a capital V on Trevor Etienne in the 228th pick, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Joshua Simon
This one needs a full-page explanation: Joshua Simon in the Round 7 slot, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Sean Martin
Sean Martin in No. 255 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
