Overall

FutureB-
The 49ers lost the trade table, and the C tells the story. The 49ers clearly saw something nobody else did in Thomas Fidone II, taking him 119 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.
Bryant falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.
Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
If Luther Burden III and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III in pick No. 11 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
They took Jonah Savaiinaea at par in the 43rd pick, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick68
Rnd3
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at Round 3, Pick 4 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick75
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Omarr Norman-Lott. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick99
Rnd3
Jake Majors
They paid up for Jake Majors at slot 99 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138
Rnd4
Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at the 138th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick139
Rnd4
Kalel Mullings
Taking Kalel Mullings in No. 139 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick182
Rnd6
Pat Bryant
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Pat Bryant in Round 6, Pick 4, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick189
Rnd6
Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at slot 189 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228
Rnd7
Barryn Sorrell
They talked themselves into Barryn Sorrell at pick No. 228, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at the 232nd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick255
Rnd7
Thomas Fidone II
They reached a country mile for Thomas Fidone II at pick 255, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
