Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The 49ers left wide receiver untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They will need Collins to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Landing Ersery that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
Mykel Williams in the 31st overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick63 Rnd2 Earnest Greene III
By-the-book stuff, Earnest Greene III at pick No. 63 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Drew Allar
Drew Allar in slot 95 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Aireontae Ersery
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Aireontae Ersery at the 127th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Caden Prieskorn
They paid sticker price for Caden Prieskorn in Round 5, Pick 31, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick191 Rnd6 Alfred Collins
They liked Alfred Collins enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 191. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick223 Rnd7 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
