DJ Jones-DT-Denver Broncos

Is not a good run defender.

Big loss

Now teammates with the hobbit, what b******t.

Denver got their replacement for Shelby Harris. That team just needs to shore up their OL and they could top the AFC West next year.

Got to say 50% snaps and former 6th rounder. Happy for him good move and great football city with good fans. But for us this is the right move on to find the next late round / or cheap FA. We got a lot of draft capital and money invested in our D line, Bosa, Kinlaw, Armstead etc. Need to round out with some diamond in the rough types to make the finances work. No Jones and Tomlinson means we can make a splash at CB imo not crazy money but solid starter type.

#49ers used a first-round pick on Javon Kinlaw and a second-round pick on Aaron Banks. Those investments need to start paying dividends in 2022 after Laken Tomlinson and D.J. Jones find better deals elsewhere.

I wonder which one of those will see the most playing time next season.🤔

Banks as of today.

I understand the economics of this but wish we would have offfered $10mi per and GTD same amount. He was a terrific find in the 6th or was it 7th. We got our money's worth out of him and then some, but with a 1st rounder in Kin and a 2nd in Banks we had to get our investments back from them. Just wish we could have kept DJ tho. Dang it.

If Banks or Kin come up short then this was not a good idea …i pray that isn't the case and that Kin and Banks + Jaylon Moore come up big for us.

The $$$ part of football sure takes a lot of fun out of it….it's great for the players but tough on us fans. Congrats, DJ, you did a helluva job while here. Glad you are now fixed for life and you deserved it.

I don't know what all the wah wah is WRT Kinlaw...he wasn't healthy in 2020 but played decently, especially considering it was mostly bu's on the DL. He should be 100% for this season. I'm expecting he'll be just fine. He'll have Hurst backing him up. I knew Jones would sign elsewhere...$10M per season's a lot for a part-time NT. Wish him luck in Denver.

why do we keep players like Ebukam and Ward but lose DJ :(

You'd think we'd keep DJ and draft the other twos replacements ... let's see how jt all shakes out.

Cheap

I know right. The main reason is we have Kinlaw waiting as well as banks, I find it hard to believe we don't see the value of having a guard like Tomlinson who's never injured. For our team that should be priority number one but I guess 13 million was hard to match. We are definitely going to have pass protection issues yet again
