Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The tape said wait; the 49ers did not. Thor Griffith went at Round 7, Pick 10, a good 48 picks before the board was ready. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

That Taylor pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty slipping to the Round 1 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick43 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at pick 43 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Circle this one: Jihaad Campbell at the 75th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick100 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at No. 100 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in Round 4, Pick 11 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick137 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Steal is underselling it; Mason Taylor at the 137th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
A reasonable price with a little left over, JJ Pegues in pick No. 186. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A big swing on Thor Griffith at slot 226, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick230 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
You do not let an offensive lineman like Seth McLaughlin reach the 230th overall pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
They will replay Jonah Monheim at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 Justin Walley
They reached a country mile for Justin Walley at the 254th pick, and the board is aghast. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
