Teams would have to be desperate to move up 4 slots for a second. Your mock is wishful thinking and out of fantasy land.
If BB took a damage good in last year's 1st round, why wouldn't he move up to draft a player like Gregory??
True, my mock could be a wishful thinking, but I bet you this is the kind of MOCK draft on Magazines that you buy and get you excited about.
and to compare Chandler Jones, Jamie Collins as well as Jabaal Sheard to Gregory is like comparing Andre Carter, Todd Kelly and Manny Lawson to the late Derek Thomas..

Randy Gregory has done nothing in the NFL while Jones and Collins have and Sheard can be a role player, ridiculous statement and comparison. He has great potential but potential does not win games. Jones had double digit sacks it 2013 and had it not been for injuries this year, may have done it again. CJ may not have been as highly regarded as RG coming put but has been developing nicely.
Taking Easley last year has nothing to do with potentially trading up for Gregory this year. Easley would have gone higher last year had he been healthy, filled a need for the Pats and offered scheme versatility, something BB loves.

Falcons are not taking a CB at 9. They have much bigger needs.
Oh and I doubt we trade back 18 times to pick up Rashaun Woods again

I love the trade downs, anything close to this puts Baalke into master trader class.

The Browns are a bad team...and thus aren't likely to trade up 4 spots and give Baalke their 2nd rd pick. They need more picks, not less. Jerry Jones also isn't very likely to cough up his 2nd rd pick to move up 5 spots. The Pats haven't been a playoff team forever because they make bad trades...just the opposite, Belichick's one of the most shrewd draft guys in the NFL. I think your mock's more of a pipe dream than potential reality.
I don't see Baalke drafting a troubled WR in the 1st rd...anything's possible, but he signed Torrey Smith and Jerome Simpson for a reason...several reasons, actually. One is because he knows how hard it is to transition a college WR to the NFL...another is his track record taking WR's in the 1st rd's not good...lastly, DGB has plenty of red flags, so I'd say the odds of drafting him are slim at best.
There are some blue-chip DL available in the 1st rd...Davis has potential, but his work ethic's nowhere near what Baalke wants. Why would he draft him when players like Eddie Goldman, Malcolm Brown, etc. are available. Those two don't take plays off...can play both inside and out and have consistently played at high levels.
Rollins isn't a CB likely to contribute right away...at least not 'til he refines his technique and discipline. If Baalke's ok with that, he might pick him.
Overalll, I like a lot of your picks, but I don't see how/why the teams you've identified would toss in their 2nd rd choices...and definitely not that many trades in the 1st rd. Baalke's never done it...and don't see any compelling reason he'd entertain that many in the 1st.

If this somehow happens, holy crap what a draft it would be! You plugged so many holes. a potential stud WR, an ILB, 2 CBs and a DL all by the 2nd round would be a grace of God.

I could see us picking up extra 3rd rounders for these moves but 2nd rounders like you said, not very realistic.

Very solid mock I like the idea of stock piling 2nd rounders

I agree with just about everything you said except factoring in that Simpson will actually have a role on this team. The only way he is active on game days is if someone is injured. Smith was a good signing, but Baalke can't keep putting band-aids on the WR position every year.
Simpson doesn't have any guaranteed cash, so unless he balls out in training camp there is no reason why a rookie couldn't out play him.

The last time I remember the 49ers moving back like that in the first round they selected WR Rashaun Woods that worked out really well.
