Another year, another bizarre 49ers draft class. This haul wasn’t really impressive at all, but the 49ers have shown that their wacky approach to the draft hasn’t really hurt their ability to compete at the highest levels of the sport. They survived blowing three first-round picks on Trey Lance, they can survive a measly kicker pick.
Favorite pick: Robert BealEDGE, Georgia (173rd overall)
Beal is another Georgia defender who blew up the NFL scouting combine. He’s the perfect Day 3 type of edge that can flourish in a scheme that’s going to let him pin his ears back — that’s exactly what the 49ers are going to let him do. Beal ran a blazing 4.49 40-yard dash at the combine this year.
Least favorite pick: Jake MoodyK, Michigan (99th overall)
The 49ers took a kicker in the top 100. Instant F.
