Kiper says he has Beckner Jr as a late Day 2 pick at this point.
If so, that'd be a nice use of our 3rd rounder provided...I think. He's a heck of a talent but I'm not sure he's a perfect fit for our DL. We need rotational depth there, though and if he's simply a sub-package player when we kick Jones out to DE in Nickel formations, that could be pretty handy.
I don't think he's quite explosive enough to be the strong side DE in a perfect world. He's really something of a poor man's Jones. But depending on the board at that point, I'd be hard pressed to pass on him; that would be a really nice value pick in the late 3rd, IMO.
