Cook DRAFTING FOR THE49ers

FutureB-
A franchise passer in Dart headlines a D- weekend for the 49ers. The trade table was where it all came apart. The 49ers shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. Put together, it is a D-.
Jaxson Dart gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. Belton has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Lachey at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In pick 30 they get the face of the franchise, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick34
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at pick No. 34 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick43
Rnd2
Landon Jackson
Landon Jackson at the 43rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick56
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at slot 56 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick62
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
They took Donovan Jackson at par in No. 62, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jaylin Noel
Nothing to complain about; Jaylin Noel went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Nice patience on Quinshon Judkins, who had no business lasting to the 75th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick100
Rnd3
Anthony Belton
They went early on Anthony Belton in the 100th overall pick, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113
Rnd4
Jordan Phillips
Fair-plus on Jordan Phillips, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138
Rnd4
Mello Dotson
No drama and no debate, Mello Dotson went about where he belonged in pick No. 138. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick147
Rnd5
Damien Martinez
A premium they did not need to pay, Damien Martinez a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick154
Rnd5
Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans at Round 5, Pick 16 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160
Rnd5
Quincy Riley
A tidy bit of business in slot 160, where Quincy Riley graded well above the range. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick227
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey slid further than he should have, and No. 227 is lovely value for the tight end. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249
Rnd7
Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at pick 249 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick252
Rnd7
Cam Horsley
Cam Horsley at the 252nd overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
