Draft Grade — 49ers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in Round 7, Pick 10 lands the 49ers a B, Riley and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Quincy Riley, pick 226, roughly 55 picks past where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B.

Every board in the league had Dellinger lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the 11th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Booker in pick 43. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 75 with a little surplus value in Zy Alexander. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick100 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. at Round 3, Pick 36 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in No. 113 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick138 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They robbed the room for Hollin Pierce here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
A conviction pick on Ollie Gordon II at the 147th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at slot 187 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.
Pick226 Rnd7 Quincy Riley
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Quincy Riley in Round 7, Pick 10, plain and simple. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick230 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
A slide stopped in pick 230, with Carson Vinson worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Clay Webb
A tidy little value on Clay Webb in No. 249, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick252 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Garrett Dellinger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
