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

The 49ers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 58th overall pick on Jordan Burch a full 30 spots early.

The Grant value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 25 they get a disruptive interior force at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Steal is underselling it; Kenneth Grant at No. 43 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
A big swing on Jordan Burch at the 58th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They jumped the gun on Charles Grant, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jake Majors
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jake Majors. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick138 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
Good price on Mello Dotson in slot 138, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick147 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
The board had Malachi Moore higher than the 147th pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick160 Rnd5 Connor Colby
Connor Colby at No. 160 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Value said wait; Teddye Buchanan in pick No. 227 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick249 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton at pick 249 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick252 Rnd7 John Williams
John Williams in the 252nd overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
