Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Marks: B+.

The 49ers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Woody Marks fell into the 249th pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

They are betting Mesidor proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The Charlie Woerner pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a weapon on the perimeter, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 43 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick46 Rnd2 Trey Amos
They paid up for Trey Amos at slot 46 when waiting would have done the job. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Kaleb Johnson at pick No. 75 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at No. 99 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
They did well to land Luke Kandra in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick137 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the 137th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick185 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
They reached a country mile for Tonka Hemingway at the 185th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick226 Rnd7 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson in Round 7, Pick 10 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick230 Rnd7 Tim Smith
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tim Smith in the 230th pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242 Rnd7 Alijah Clark
Alijah Clark slid further than he should have, and No. 242 is lovely value for the safety. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick249 Rnd7 Woody Marks
They barely believed it either: Woody Marks still on the board at the 249th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick255 Rnd7 Akheem Mesidor
Value said wait; Akheem Mesidor in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
