Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB
Good, not great, for the 49ers: B+.

There is reaching, and then there is Cashius Howell at the 114th overall pick. The 49ers jumped the board by 114 and dared it to prove them wrong. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

Jones at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Nice patience on Tate Ratledge, who had no business lasting to the 45th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick66 Rnd3 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at pick No. 66 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick77 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
They will replay Colston Loveland at Round 3, Pick 13 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Cashius Howell
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cashius Howell this early at slot 114. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick137 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in the 137th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick229 Rnd7 Logan Jones
Somehow Logan Jones was still sitting there in the 229th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at slot 249 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool in the 254th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
