They don't need him to be as good as DJ Jones. Improvement on the back end along with a hopefully improved pass rush is going to put the defense in a better position overall. If they can get anything out of Kinlaw then that would be another boost. Find a guy that can take some snaps and handle the run. You don't need him to be a world beater, just hold up inside and eat some double teams.

We may go from top 3 in run D to top 10. No big deal. We improved in coverage with the Ward signing so that outweighs the drop in run D

Kinkaw was good vs the run, he actually swatted some passes which no Niner D lineman could really do and if he's out, Givens isn't bad at all

I hope they still try for DJ Reed.

I want Verrett to be our #2 with Ward opposite him and Moseley in the slot. Then when Verrett gets injured we can have Moseley shift back to the outside

Finally Kolohe....we got a solid cb. I just wish it was Gillmore but I'm happy and I know you are too my man! We've been calling for this for years

Haha I thought of you when I seen this signing.

I've been hating on Lynch for the past two years, I'll give him a little props for this one!!!!

Keep it up and get the f k back to work!!!!

Yeah we will give him his props. I can't believe Ward allowed the
2nd lowest completion percentage
3rd in passer rating
1st in tight window rate

I don't either unless it's at a discount and he wants to win a SB
I love all the handwringing over how much the team overpaid. Hey guess what, everybody signed in the first wave of FA is basically overpaid to an extent. Typical Niner fan: "we don't ever sign anyone for s**t on the first day of legal tampering." Same Niner fan: "Damn we f**king overpaid the hell out of that guy."
Keep in mind the max total on the surface will 99.9% never amount to 42 million.

You bet your ass Mayo. We finally addressed the cb position. Now if we sign Verrett we are covered. I do want a pass rusher but maybe we just draft one in the 2nd round

Last year we were a good cb away from winning a SB. (Besides injuries to Verrett Ford Mostert and Trent Williams) so this is a good signing

Thank you!
I was in the camp of signing a star Pass Rusher to help Nick Bosa but if not it was a good idea to sign a good CB.
I wanted Stephon Gilmore. I think he was the right final piece of the puzzle for the Defense. Now Ward has shown some good things the last season.
He´s young and can improve. The contract all things considerated is not that expensive for the CB market. It´s only three years. We´ll see.
I´m not super excited by that move but it´s an interesting one with some upside.

Yeah, I'd like to sign Jones, but otherwise we need to focus on our own FA's.
