It's a very simple scenario that happens every year. Why can't you simply answer the question? I'm cool with whatever draft strategy you believe in.
I'm just not cool when inflexibility meets the team's top need (and you know all the reasons why; or at least you should as a 9er fan).
Okay, I'm genuinely confused. I already answered your question. First I explained how there is no correct answer to OG1 vs OT8 because context matters and that context changes every year. You then asked me based on my "big board" this year, and I answered.
I'll try a shorter post so that you can follow along. I would draft OL at pick 31 in the following order, according to I how I have players stacked:
Joe Alt, OT1
JC Latham, OT2
Taliese Fuanga, OT3
Olu Fashanu, OT4
Jackson Powers-Johnson, OC1
Troy Fautanu, OG1
Amarius Mims, OT5
Graham Barton, OC2
Positional rankings ignores positional versatility, for example, I believe Fuanga can move to guard and Fautanu can stick at tackle. If these players are all gone at 31, I'd look at another position.
Let me make it easier for you. If your 2nd best G was available at 31, 5th best C and 8th best T, who are you going with, narcissist? 
Look, I understand this is your shtick and you're trolling - quite effectively vs some posters might I add - but at least make this entertaining for me. If I give you a plain as day answer to your (irrelevant) question, don't pretend like it's not there.

Hopefully in year 8, the FO actually drafts ONE freaking player you like. One.
My original message: keep an open mind. If the 2nd best G is the BPA, the FO should probably go that route as they've proven after 7 years, the can't ID, draft and develop s**t in the later rounds.
So is the team being judged by their player evaluations, or by ours? When you say BPA, by who's perspective? Clearly you don't believe their idea of BPA has been working. So maybe no, if they have their idea of who the second best guard is and it is their opinion that he is the BPA at 31, they should probably steer clear, no? All this poor evaluation and valuation has left our team in the gutter, bottom of the league in talent, performance and results, and we should expect no different outcome from the same incapable FO taking the same terrible actions; thatd be the definition of insanity, no? Unless you're suggesting that there is a universal big board of BPAs that the whole league, minus the 49ers, are operating off of.
