Here is my plan:

49ers want Kirk, but are probably reluctant to give up the #2 pick. So, we trade Kirk to San Francisco for their 2nd and 3rd round picks this year, and their 1st and 2nd round picks next year.

Then, this year, we flip one of our third round picks (plus an additional late rounder if it takes it) to Cincinnati for AJ McCarron (who is on the last year of his rookie deal). We extend him at a reasonable rate for three or four years (instead of waiting until after the season).

Then, we use our 1st round pick to take Dalvin Cook or Leonard Fournette if they are there. If they aren't, we take best defensive player available. In the 2nd round, we use the two picks to find a stud wide receiver and another best defensive player available.

With the money we free up by moving Kirk (which we should do now if we are going to do it - as soon as we have the trade arranged for AJ), we should use the cap savings and make a major push for one of the available free agent DL (Hankins, Logan, or Poe), and Dont'a Hightower. Maybe, if we free up more space by releasing Hall and Lauvao, we even make a push for TJ Lang.
