Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in No. 249 lands the 49ers a B, Fairchild and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. Dylan Fairchild had no business being available in slot 249, and the 49ers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get juice off the edge at fair value.
Pick43 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Circle this one: Walter Nolen at the 43rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
They will replay Wyatt Milum at pick No. 76 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick99 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery in slot 99 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at the 111th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick137 Rnd4 Trey Amos
They robbed the room for Trey Amos here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick185 Rnd6 Mason Taylor
The board fumbled Mason Taylor all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick 209 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick226 Rnd7 Kyle Kennard
You do not let an edge rusher like Kyle Kennard reach pick No. 226 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick230 Rnd7 Savion Williams
Steal is underselling it; Savion Williams at slot 230 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick249 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
They barely believed it either: Dylan Fairchild still on the board at pick 249. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the Round 7 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
