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

You build a draft on nights like this. KeAndre Lambert-Smith had no business being available in the 232nd pick, and the 49ers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They will need Alexander to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick 11 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick No. 43 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Good price on Jayden Higgins in Round 3, Pick 11, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick99 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Donovan Jackson at the Round 3 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
They paid a round early for Darius Alexander in slot 112, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick138 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at the 138th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick139 Rnd4 Bhayshul Tuten
A conviction pick on Bhayshul Tuten at the 139th pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jeffrey Bassa in No. 148, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick No. 189 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick228 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Taking KeAndre Lambert-Smith in pick 232 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Nice patience on Marcus Yarns, who had no business lasting to No. 255. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
