Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureC+
The 49ers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Nobody had Thor Griffith this high, and it is not close. The 49ers reached 95 spots to get him at the 189th pick.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a long-term starter on the line, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Nice patience on Kenneth Grant, who had no business lasting to slot 39. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Steal is underselling it; Jihaad Campbell at the 77th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jake Majors
A tidy little value on Jake Majors in No. 100, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in the 114th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick137 Rnd4 Cashius Howell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cashius Howell in the Round 4 slot, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the 154th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick184 Rnd6 Nicholas Singleton
You do not let a running back like Nicholas Singleton reach the 184th overall pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick189 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
A big swing on Thor Griffith at the Round 6 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
