Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall D+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
The 49ers bled value on every deal, hence the D+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on KJ Jefferson; the 49ers did not wait, grabbing him 121 spots ahead at the Round 7 slot.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. James falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The Dion Dawkins deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the 11th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
A reach for Ashton Gillotte in the 43rd pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick56 Rnd2 Gunnar Helm
The board had cheaper options than Gunnar Helm at pick 56, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick62 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They liked Tate Ratledge enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 2, Pick 30. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Nothing to complain about; Denzel Burke went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick112 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick No. 112 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick136 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 136 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick138 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce in the 138th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick139 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rylie Mills. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick153 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in No. 153 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jordan James
The board fumbled Jordan James all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick189 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Fair-plus on Dont'e Thornton Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 KJ Jefferson
KJ Jefferson at Round 7, Pick 10 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick254 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
Value said wait; Gino Garcia in pick 254 says they were not listening. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
