Board predicts Trent Williams retires after this season, that the 49ers take Monroe Freeling if he's available at 27 and start him immediately at left tackle with Williams gone, that Arizona won't contend in the NFC West, and that San Francisco will cut Brandon Aiyuk.
“I would say the the 40 nine's are probably gonna take him if he's there.”
