More right than wrong for the 49ers, and a B- to prove it.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The 49ers walked out of the weekend still thin at wide receiver, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
In slot 28 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value.
Pick59 Rnd2 Connor Lew
A tidy little value on Connor Lew in pick 59, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
