Trade back into the 2nd and draft best o-line available
I'm fine with taking BPA even if it is a LB, OT, whoever. The 49ers have so many busts because they keep drafting for need.

I'm thinking the 49ers trade back out of the first round with the Cardinals for their pick at the 34 spot and pick up more draft picks. I think the cardinals do the trade to take Simpson at the 27 spot.
Or it could be the Jets trading with the 49ers to take Simpson at that spot.
Or the 49ers stay at the 27 and take the edge rusher from UCF. Lawrence.

Just saw this on NFL network and heard it on KNBR yesterday.

What makes you think this is true?

the 49ers want to trade back they are just finding partners the most common are teams trying to get a 5th round option at premium positions like QB

Thats what was said on KNBR, but how do we know we want to trade back before seeing who/what falls to us?

Lynch has already expressed they want more picks also this draft class is very weak there are probably about 20 players in theis draft that teams will have a 1st grade on. The players from like 21 to 40 for example there is minimal difference in talent you get at a player from 27 to like 40 to 50 will be very minimal.

They obviously wont trade back till the players fall to pick 27 though if its someone they love they will take him but if not i wouldnt be surprised if there is a trade down

ya they are telling everyone they want to trade back but that makes me think that's not their first plan... they must have a guy they are targeting who they think will be available for them to trade up and get... i hope it is edge rusher

The need/want for more picks being a priority than anyone who falls to us

Best available OT. Followed, in the second round, by the best available OT.

This. Though, I do like Omar Cooper Jr. A lot.

I don't think we want more picks in this draft, it seemed strategic that this was the draft in which we got rid of picks when we usually go into drafts with a surplus of picks. We knew this was going to be a weak draft.
At #27, you take Sadiq, Cooper Jr, or EMN, CJ Allen, respectively, if anyone falls. Otherwise, everyone else is trade bait to move down 8 spots to get back the 3rd and, maybe, a 5th Rnder.
If noone trades, the straight picks are:
#27: Malachi Lawrence, Edge, UCF
#58: Gennings Dunker, LG-OT, Iowa
#127: Michael Taaffe, S, Texas
#133: Austin Barber, LT, Florida
#138: Kendrick Law, WR, Kentucky
#139: Pat Coogan, C, Indiana

The Niners should trade down as they need 7 picks:
Edge, LG, S, WR, OT, C, and double dip Edge.
TE, RB, LB-ST are UDFAs.

Really hoping for a small trade back & we select Cashius Howell. Something just tells me he is gonna be a beast despite the T Rex arms.

i think he can easily be an 8+ sack guy you just have to understand he is completely 1 dimensional and he wont be able to contribute against the run or on base downs
