I've always said there are a lot of different ways to approach the draft.
OT is not even my 1st preference. I'd rather they trade back and get a CB.

Having the 5th pick is a gift. You can trade back and pick up an extra 2nd, 3rd, or 4th (or a combination of them) to build depth in a team that lacks depth... and has older/expensive players that are near the ends of their careers. To obsess over 1 player (or another) just doesn't inspire me... and seems like a lost opportunity. There is no way to tell if players #5-8 will be any better than players #9-13. Take what "experts" say with a grain of salt... especially this time of year.

I can see us picking a TE but id be shocked if we drafted a WR in the first round. I really like Nabers and Odunze as well but WR would be BPA and not what we really need and nothing wrong with BPA but we have so many holes to fill. In a trade down i think we go Bowers, CB, OL, or Edge. WR can be had later. Just my humble opinion.
My guy is Bowers but i wouldnt be terribly upset if we went another direction. Those i listed are needs and no DT is worth the top 8 or 10 so id be good with either, though a tad grumpy missing Bowers1- #11 Bowers TE 7a- #225 Boyd DT
2a- #35 Cooper LB 7b- #253 Vidal RB
2b- #37 Jenkins DT
3a- #66 Puni OT
3b- #69 Sainristill CB
4a- #105 Rice WR
4b- #110 Lloyd RB
5- #140 Green CB
6- #181 Nourzad C/OG

MHJ, Bowers, Nabers, Odunze. How far can we go and still get one?
We have a great QB. I want him to have multiple very good to great pass catchers. 1 or 2 ain't enough and picking later, we'll need luck.
ALSO, keep in mind that JH, by the looks of his hires, is trying to build the 2013 Niners. Big tough OL.

It's time to finally start thinking about trade-backs to make up for the many roster spots that have poor depth.

TT was the epitome of drafting a player based on his obsession over a player. We saw it at the beginning of his career with the drafting of DJ Fluker and Manti Teo. Later we saw him obsess over Melvin Gordon and K9. The last draft, he fell in love with Quentin Johnson and his "traits". Many of those picks were overdrafts and/or traded picks to move up. That left us with poor depth. Sometimes it led to poor economic decisions (JCJ).
