Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureD+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Fitzgerald: B.

Call it larceny. Ryan Fitzgerald sat on the board until the Round 7 slot, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will need Ratledge to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
A premium they did not need to pay, Benjamin Morrison a notch or two before his time. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They reached into another round for Tate Ratledge, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Xavier Watts in pick No. 67, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jake Majors
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jake Majors. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at the 99th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Ajani Cornelius
A straight-up fair deal on Ajani Cornelius at pick 112, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
They will replay TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick189 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Chris Paul Jr. at the 189th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick228 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Theo Wease Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at No. 232 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
No edge and no loss on Torricelli Simpkins III in pick 255; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
