Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 7, Pick 5: the 49ers steal Paul Jr. and grade out a B.

The 49ers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Chris Paul Jr. fell into pick No. 221.

They will need Smith to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at the 44th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
You do not let an offensive lineman like Dylan Fairchild reach the 75th overall pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 100 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jake Majors
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 112 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick137 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Circle this one: Malachi Moore at pick 137 is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dont'e Thornton Jr.. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at slot 170 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in pick No. 186 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick221 Rnd7 Chris Paul Jr.
They robbed the room for Chris Paul Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick230 Rnd7 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick249 Rnd7 Tim Smith
Value said wait; Tim Smith in No. 249 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick254 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris at the 254th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
