Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureD
Good, not great, for the 49ers: B-.

The 49ers torched the value chart for Zane Durant, taking him 39 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

With running back, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them. The Igbinosun steal is the beam this whole class leans on. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
No drama and no debate, Emmanuel Pregnon went about where he belonged in slot 33. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick44 Rnd2 Zion Young
Zion Young at the 44th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalon Kilgore at Round 4, Pick 27 is the proof. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick133 Rnd4 Malik Benson
By-the-book stuff, Malik Benson at pick No. 133 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 Zane Durant
Zane Durant at No. 138 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick139 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 139 on Davison Igbinosun with running back, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
