This is sort of the opposite of how that works.
It's just a prediction, I'm pretty confident the best player available at 49 will be a safety.

I agree I think it is BPA with a focus on defense. I also don’t see us bringing in 8 players, with what we did in FA I could this as a year that we trade up in rounds to get the guy we want, or try to move picks to next year. As our rosters gets older and expensive in the next few years it would be good to have good draft capital to add cheap young talent. We are in a unique spot with how young are roster is that we can have a light year in the draft and would not hurt us long term. To me a goal should be to try and find a way add a 3rd round pick to next year. Get 3/4 players out of this draft, and pick up 1/2 picks for next year. I think we will be a hot spot for some undrafted players.
I hope we continue to take advantage of the market inefficiency that future picks are undervalued. Trade some picks this year for picks next year at the already established one-round-higher premium.

Since the combine, Layne’s stock has continued to rise. He has heard from almost every team in the league, with the most frequent inquiries coming from the Rams, Browns, Lions, Cardinals and Ravens.
What would it cost to move into the First Round and would be worth it say after Pick 20?
One player I keep coming back to in the middle of the second round area is Yodney Cajuste. I think he belongs in that "future starting left tackle" category. He has great balance between pass protection on an island for a major college program and powerful run blocking. Defensive back is a bigger team need, but I like the value of taking a legitimate left tackle to push Robinson and Hubbard in the mid-second.

I could definitely get behind Cajuste at 49 if he's there. That's a quality pick.
