Fantasy Impact:
Williams is reunited with 49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan who was with the Redskins when he was drafted in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft. Williams will fit right in to what San Francisco wants to do with the zone run scheme and could immediately fill a void left by OT Joe Staley should he retire this off-season. Williams finally gets his wish granted of wanting out of Washington, and what a get by the 49ers at the beginning of Day Three of the NFL Draft. A win-win for both clubs as Williams was most likely never going to play for the Redskins again after everything that has transpired with his injuries and hold-out situation over the last couple years.
