Sharo DRAFTING FOR THE49ers

Draft Grade — 49ers

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the 49ers. There is a lot to like until you notice running back is still a hole. The 49ers never got to the one that mattered most.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Rutledge. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Kenyon Sadiq
In the Round 1 slot they get a seam-stretching tight end, and a steal at that.
Pick58
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
A quiet steal in pick 58: Jake Slaughter for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92
Rnd3
Skyler Bell
Skyler Bell slipping to the 92nd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick127
Rnd4
Eli Raridon
Eli Raridon at slot 127 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick133
Rnd4
Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge is a better player than Round 4, Pick 33 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick138
Rnd4
Kyle Louis
They took Kyle Louis at par in No. 138, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick171
Rnd5
Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa at the 171st overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
