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

The JJ Pegues pick is the one that will follow the 49ers into the fall. They took him 66 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

The Woodson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In No. 11 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
No edge and no loss on Jihaad Campbell in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jamaree Caldwell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jamaree Caldwell. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Aeneas Peebles
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Aeneas Peebles well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in pick 112 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138 Rnd4 Mello Dotson
A clean, defensible pick in the 138th pick with a little surplus value in Mello Dotson. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick139 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II
A wild overpay on Oronde Gadsden II in Round 4, Pick 38, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick148 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
They reached into another round for Luke Lachey, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189 Rnd6 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah in the 189th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan in No. 228 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
You do not let a running back like Kyle Monangai reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick255 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
Steal is underselling it; Craig Woodson at pick No. 255 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
