The 49ers reached for Moore and never recovered. Grade: F. The move everyone will second-guess came early. The 49ers reached some 42 spots for Derrick Moore, and value like that does not grow back. The warnings were there, and the F is the bill.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.
Reese falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Bottom line, it will take a lot of luck to make this look better later.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In No. 18 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick21
Rnd1
Kayden McDonald
In the Round 1 slot they get a wrecking ball inside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
Emmanuel Pregnon
In pick 27 they get a long-term starter on the line, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58
Rnd2
Derrick Moore
This one needs a full-page explanation: Derrick Moore in the 58th overall pick, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick92
Rnd3
Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at slot 92 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127
Rnd4
Logan Jones
No edge and no loss on Logan Jones in the 127th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133
Rnd4
Max Iheanachor
They paid up for Max Iheanachor at Round 4, Pick 33 when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick138
Rnd4
Davison Igbinosun
A reach for Davison Igbinosun in pick No. 138; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick161
Rnd5
Gracen Halton
They liked Gracen Halton enough to skip the value, taking him in the 161st overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171
Rnd5
Bud Clark
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bud Clark. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick194
Rnd6
De'Zhaun Stribling
A conviction pick on De'Zhaun Stribling at pick 194 that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
