Would you trade up for Star Lotulelei?

I'm seeing a lot of people including myself don't like Richardson at 14. He's a pass rusher not really a good fit here. I have a hard time seeing Star Lotulelei fall past the bucs at 13.The only other options i see outside of tayvon would be if one of the offensive linemen fell. Not many are projecting that to happen here so, instead of forcing a pick here would you move up for him and what would you be willing to give up? I'm open to maybe giving up a two next* year for him. What say you?

I'd love to, but we're not really in a position to do it. We only have 5 picks this year and we're already short a 3rd. We don't have much on the roster to offer as trade bait either. I hope we're done trading away future picks.

If we were the 49ers sitting on 14 fuging picks, I'd say hell yeah.

No way. DT success rate in the first round is horrid. I think I read somewhere like 48% or something. It's almost not even worth taking a DT in the first, ever, unless some once-in-a-decade player is available. I know all positions are a guessing game to an extent but 48% just isn't enticing.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.

      Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
