He gone.

The #49ers are not picking up the contract option for veteran DT Earl Mitchell, source said. A solid locker room presence and leader, he'll be a free agent.

Still don't know how he was getting more snaps than DJJones. Probably for his leadership, but leadership doesn't stuff runs. DJJones time.

Jones is a little light in the butt when it comes to dealing with double teams.

Jarrett would be great. 25 years old. Expensive. $14-16M+/yr is likely the range he will get.

The writing was on the wall when they were sitting him at the end of the year to get the younger guys more snaps.

Garcon up next.

Ian Williams is a big DJ Jones fan.

His name is DJ Jones and he's going to have a breakout season this year. He's the reason why I think the 49ers can pass on Q. Williams and Ed Oliver. DJ can ball. Kid has a bright future! https://t.co/o9cR0omCoa

Let's hope in the end, this was more about Saleh enabling his DL coach on snap counts vs. his overall philosophy. If his 'big personnel' is his, be prepared for much of the same.

One positive sign: we've been running two ER's at the Senior Bowl under 270. Interesting.

Thats what I've been saying. DJ has some upside. He can move for a big man. Give him a good Dline coach and he should be able to do more in the passing game.
