Daniel Kilgore just got extended. They also have Snyder and Looney both of whom may be be able to play as the back-up Center and are quality back-up Guards. They pulled another Alex Boone, extended him cheap, then will start him.
That being said, the team has 5 or 6 picks in the 1st 3 rounds and 3-4 positions of need: WR, CB, S and to a lesser extent LB. They have the picks to really move up and have a real shot at Sammy Watkins by giving up a 1st, 2nd and 3rd for Sammy Watkins. They would still have a 2nd, 3rd and an extra comp pick 3rd/4th. That being said I wouldn't do it, but Baalke might.
However I think Baalke does what he did last year and trades w/the Cowboys getting the #16 pick and giving up a 3rd rounder, #77 overall. Worked out great for Dallas and the 49ers. We all know that Jerry Jones called that shot and he may very well do the same thing in a deeper draft. I can also see them trading w/the Chiefs/Eagles #22/#23 and giving up their late 3rd rounder, # 94.
Possible players available at #16 or #23
#16 CB: Justin Gilbert, Darqueze Dennard # 23 CB: Jason Verrett,
S: Calvin Pryor, Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix S: Lamarcus Joyner, Jimmy Ward
WR: Mike Evans, WR: Marquise Lee, Kelvin Benjamin, Jordan Mathews
DE: Aaron Donald
OT: Lewan, Robinson or Mathews
I would give up the 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks, pass on Watkins and take Clowney. Imagine him and Aldon Smith coming off the edge and McDonald and Justin Smith up the middle. As for moving up with the Cowboys or Chiefs it all depends on who's still on the board.
if we do move for a receiver hopefully it's either to grab OBJR or Brandin Cooks.
