Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the 49ers: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the 49ers spent Round 3, Pick 35 on Sai'vion Jones, a name most had 124 spots down the list. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Getting Mondon Jr. where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mason Graham
Mason Graham at No. 11 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick43 Rnd2 Armand Membou
They reached a country mile for Armand Membou at pick No. 43, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
This one needs a full-page explanation: Luke Kandra in slot 75, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick99 Rnd3 Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones at pick 99 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Value with a capital V on Mason Taylor in the 111th overall pick, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They barely believed it either: Kevin Winston Jr. still on the board at the 137th pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick185 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board fumbled Smael Mondon Jr. all the way to the 185th pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Thor Griffith well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool at slot 230 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kaden Prather
Kaden Prather at the Round 7 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
