31. zach miller TE 2nd best te
32. ryan kalil center

39. tony ugohdoug free ot
40. aaron sears og
41. charles johnson de/lb
42. anthony spencer lb/de
43. quentin moses de/lb
44. demarcus tyler dt
45. jon beason lb
46. john wendling safety
47. eric weddle safety
then your next level of players like
ikaika alama-francis de hawaii etc.
so to me, you dont want to drop down to get 3 number 2 picks and drop to the 4th to 5th level and get players, when you can get a good steady player like aaron ross, or revis cb, or bowe wr, or meacham wr, or reggie nelson-granted reports are that he isnt too smart, but you cant deny the natural ability and he makes plays, or moss de/lb or willis linebacker, but i think he will be way gone by 17th pick, gosh if you take a player that is 6-2, 237, mean and nasty loves football, makes plays, and is and did run a 4.38 in the 40, that is super fast for a linebacker, so dont drop down too far and overloook the good steady players, remember thats what happened when we had a chance at a good de/lb from texas, taht went to jacksonville, and jerry jones traded down, got more picks but they were busts,
you just dont want to trade down too far and get greedy, just drop down 5-7 spots or so, pick up an extra 3rd with maybe a 5th or 6th round pick thrown in,
