Just because he is tendered for a first round pick doesnt necessarily mean that the team who accepts a trade has to recieve a first rounder.
For example, he is tendered at a 1st round level, but the Ravens own Gaither's rights right now, and can trade him for anything.
Remember when we had Brandon Lloyd tendered at a 1st round level, and the Redskins had no first round picks. We traded Brandon Lloyed away for a 3rd and 4th rounder because we owned his rights.
So technically, the 49ers can give up the 17th pick for Gaither.
You are correct. But if we actually sign him to an offer sheet and they refuse it will be our #13.
Which tells me it will either be #13 or nothing. I don't see Balt intentionally trading him for a mid teen pick just to try and draft another guy to play LT. Wouldn't make any sense.
But if we make an offer they can't match. Then they have no choice but to take the #13 and hope for the best.
If Gaither leaves, Oher moves to LT 
i would like this trade for our 13th pick! he is a proven player ha ha i sound like a briken record im sure! didnt even read the rest of the thread ha ha! baltimore gets boldin and gives us gaither, sounds like a fair trade for our 13th pick ha ha!
I'd rather it be our #17.
Can't trade a pick that wasn't originally yours. For instance, if Seattle wants Marshall, and Denver sticks to their guns about his tender, it's going to be for the 6th or no 1st rounder this year. You can only trade your own earned picks.
