Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The 49ers bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The 49ers took Mason Fairchild a full 75 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Paul.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick 5 they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They read the board right and Patrick Paul was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick69 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in Round 3, Pick 5 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A reach on Khyree Jackson in the 94th pick; the board had better options right there. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
By-the-book stuff, Dominick Puni at slot 98 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They took Cedric Gray at par in the 132nd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick176 Rnd6 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at pick 176 is the proof. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick209 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
The board had cheaper options than Tanor Bortolini at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick214 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A straight-up fair deal on Gabe Hall at slot 214, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick215 Rnd6 J.J. Weaver
They reached a country mile for J.J. Weaver at the 215th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick249 Rnd7 Mason Fairchild
They talked themselves into Mason Fairchild at No. 249, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
