DJ should be the starting nose. What a hell of a game. His balance through contact is what impresses me most. He's so good at staying squared up while moving his feet. Also has quick hands that consistently land inside the center's framework. He reminds me a lot of Grady Jarrett, ATL's 1/3.

If Saleh really wanted to go big in base, he'd have DJ at 1, Day at 3, Defo at BE and Solly at Leo. That would be a stout lineup.

Not to be a downer on this play, but if this was against Fredrick I'm sure he was probably sub par during this game. Dude is probably out for the season with Gillain Barre Syndrome.That being said, DJ is making a statement this training camp and preseason. I am sure all the hard work and training he did off season has not gone unnoticed by the 49er brass.

That play was from last season.

D.J. Jones (DT)
89.7 grade, 51 snaps
Despite being a defensive tackle, Jones may be climbing up the KSWOF charts with his performance this preseason. While he has managed three hurries this preseason, his strength is as a run defender. Against Houston he had two stops and a force fumble, on his way to an elite 91.2 run defense grade. A performance this good will earn him a seat on the bench backing up Earl Mitchell (56.8 grade on 27 snaps).

Sheldon Day (DT)
88.4 grade, 61 snaps
The 49ers took two very important things from the Jaguars last season: A signature win, and Sheldon Day. Day, the primary backup to DeForest Buckner, continues to impress at 3T. Of his 11 run snaps against Houston, 4 were stops. Day's 27.3% run stop percentage led all NFL interior linemen with 10+ run snaps in Week 2. Day will comprise a core component of the 49ers rotation at defensive line. He may even come in on pass rush downs to pair with Solomon Thomas. Buckner would then be free to finally complete his transformation into Calais Campbell.
