I want a trade up for a LT.

...but I hear the punter class of 2020 is gonna be legendary. Watch out.

Trey Smith has a medical condition (blood clot) that may cause him to drop somewhere in the range of 15-25. That would be a steal IMO. Trading up in the top ten to get one of the other elite OTs would cost a fortune.

Without looking at a specific player, I'd rather take a CB than a safety, all else being equal (or even somewhat close). We're dangerously thin at CB, and don't have a second-round pick this next year - which also means a trade up for an OT is hard to envision. I'd be fine an an OT, but I'm hoping McGlinchey can shift to the right in the next year or two and we can find someone a little cheaper (contract and/or draft capital) to hold down the right side.

Delprit is no Derwin James, but he’s the closest thing to him. The cornerback class next year is solid, but at this point of the process I don’t see a corner who’s as good of a player (in terms of overall impact to our defense) as Delprit would be.

Also, could you please remind me what happened to our second round pick of 2020—who did we get in the trade off?

2020 2nd rounder was for Dee Ford.

Thanks Jikkle!

I could live with that (Dee Ford for our second rounder).

I’m seeing mock drafts projecting us picking at #31

I'll once again note that I haven't studied ESPN's Football Power Index to figure out what goes in to it so consider me neutral at best on this even when I eliminate my own expectations for this team, but....

ESPN Football Power Index

% chance 49ers win the division entering game - 65%
% chance Rams win the division entering game - 19%

With a 49ers win % chance to win the division - 81%
With a Rams win % chance to win the division - 29%

With a 49ers loss % chance to win the division - 53%
With a Rams loss % chance to win the division - 6%

If I'd have been forced to guess these, I'd have been way off.
