Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The 49ers cashed the board's mistake on Wheatley: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Zakee Wheatley, the No. 73 name on the board, stolen at pick 92. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting Parker II proves the room right and everyone else wrong. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In pick 27 they get an anchor for the offensive line, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Brian Parker II
They reached a country mile for Brian Parker II at the 58th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
They robbed the room for Zakee Wheatley here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick127 Rnd4 Xavier Scott
Xavier Scott in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick133 Rnd4 Demond Claiborne
Fair-plus on Demond Claiborne, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd4 Justin Joly
A reasonable price with a little left over, Justin Joly in the 139th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick172 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner slid further than he should have, and pick No. 172 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
