He also links Romeo Doubs to the 49ers, who will have a big hole at wideout with the expected release of Brandon Aiyuk and impending free agency of Jauan Jennings.

The 49ers do hypothetically have the cap space to be involved in the Pierce sweepstakes if they’d like to be, but we’d be surprised if they won a bidding war against the major salary cap space super powers.
