Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Lambert-Smith should have been long gone. The 49ers pounced, and earned a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: KeAndre Lambert-Smith, pick No. 249, roughly 49 picks past where he belonged.

If Pegues pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 11 they get a wrecking ball inside, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
Kyle Kennard in the 43rd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They let Demetrius Knight Jr. come to them and pounced at slot 75. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick100 Rnd3 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at the 100th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
A premium they did not need to pay, Jacob Parrish a notch or two before his time. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick138 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at pick 138 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jah Joyner
Jah Joyner at the Round 5 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 CJ West
Value said wait; CJ West in pick No. 160 says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick227 Rnd7 Caleb Rogers
They will replay Caleb Rogers at the 227th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick249 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith at slot 249 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns at pick No. 252 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
