Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the 49ers and Hopper: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ty'Ron Hopper, the No. 157 name on the board, stolen at the Round 6 slot. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Eguakun has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell in No. 31 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick63 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Nothing to complain about; Chris Braswell went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97 Rnd3 Mason McCormick
By-the-book stuff, Mason McCormick at the 97th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick98 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the 98th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in pick No. 125 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick132 Rnd4 Sione Vaki
No edge and no loss on Sione Vaki in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick171 Rnd5 Nathan Thomas
A premium they did not need to pay, Nathan Thomas a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
A quiet steal in slot 176: Chau Smith-Wade for less than the market said. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick209 Rnd6 Bub Means
Bub Means in pick 209 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick214 Rnd6 Kingsley Eguakun
A big swing on Kingsley Eguakun at the 214th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick215 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
A linebacker of that caliber at No. 215 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick249 Rnd7 Marcellas Dial
The board fumbled Marcellas Dial all the way to pick No. 249, and they scooped it up. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
