Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The 49ers won the night they stopped Bassa from sliding. Grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Jeffrey Bassa tumbling to the 49ers in Round 7, Pick 14 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They are betting Mays proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the 11th pick they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick43 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Kenneth Grant reach the Round 2 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery in No. 75 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 35 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick121 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at slot 121 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick138 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at pick No. 138 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick139 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in the 139th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick189 Rnd6 Logan Brown
Taking Logan Brown in pick 189 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Cooper Mays
Value said wait; Cooper Mays in Round 7, Pick 10 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at the 232nd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Antwane Wells Jr.
Somehow Antwane Wells Jr. was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
