Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the 49ers to a D-.

The Jordan Travis pick is the one that will follow the 49ers into the fall. They took him 56 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took McMillan. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 31 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick56 Rnd2 Blake Fisher
They jumped the gun on Blake Fisher, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
Good price on Zach Frazier in slot 60, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick63 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 31. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Malik Washington
Malik Washington is a better player than pick No. 94 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
A big swing on Jordan Travis at the 124th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
They will replay Jalen McMillan at the 132nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick176 Rnd6 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at pick No. 176 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick211 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
The board had cheaper options than Darius Muasau at the 211th pick, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick215 Rnd6 Tyler Owens
A real head-scratcher, Tyler Owens in Round 6, Pick 40 is miles ahead of his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick251 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at pick 251 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
