Jedrick Wills had a miserable end to his first contract as a Cleveland Brown, going 3-14. It is not exactly how one would carry himself heading in to free agency, and Kevin Stefanski and Andrew Berry would rather lean towards Jack Conklin and Dawand Jones as their duo in the near future.

So where does that leave the former top-10 pick? One solution for him is to become a swing tackle with the 49ers, with the aim of eventually replacing either Colton McKivitz (will be a free agent when 2026 arrives) at the right side or Trent Williams (turning 37 this season and nearing retirement) at the left. It should be a very foolproof plan by the 49ers to solidify their offensive line
