Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureC+
The 49ers cashed the board's mistake on Sanders: B.

Call it larceny. T.J. Sanders sat on the board until slot 254, and the 49ers did not need to be asked twice.

The Ersery reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get juice off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Aireontae Ersery. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Walter Nolen reach the 100th pick and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick114 Rnd4 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty in pick No. 114 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
They barely believed it either: Mason Taylor still on the board at pick 137. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick167 Rnd5 Trey Amos
Circle this one: Trey Amos at No. 167 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick231 Rnd7 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at the 231st overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jihaad Campbell
The board fumbled Jihaad Campbell all the way to No. 247, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick249 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
Somehow Dylan Fairchild was still sitting there in the 249th pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 T.J. Sanders
They will replay T.J. Sanders at slot 254 for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
