Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers won the night they stopped Sanders from sliding. Grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the 49ers were there to profit. Raheim Sanders, the No. 146 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 7, Pick 38. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They are betting Caldwell proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get an anchor for the offensive line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the 43rd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
You do not let a linebacker like Jihaad Campbell reach No. 75 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in slot 100 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick112 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick137 Rnd4 Maxwell Hairston
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Maxwell Hairston in pick 137, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick186 Rnd6 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at pick No. 186 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
They let Jared Wilson come to them and pounced at the 226th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
Value said wait; Jamaree Caldwell in pick No. 230 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
They reached into another round for Jimmy Horn Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick254 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Somehow Raheim Sanders was still sitting there in the 254th pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
