49ers sign DT Javon Hargrave

I'd settle for not being moved 1.5 yards off the LoS when double team blocked. It appears his clear strength is as a pass rusher.

The #49ers have let teams know that DT Javon Kinlaw is on the trade block, per sources.

This makes sense

Don't pay Buck, don't pay Jones, wasted a pick on Kinlaw with Wirfs on the board. Don't make senses tbh

Was thinking the same thing, especially with Jones and his salary half of what we're paying Hargrave.

I like it, but now you're paying armstead bosa and Hargrave? Thays a lot of money on the dline when the. Oline needs so much help.

But we got mckivitz, Brunskil and no center, so that's decent.

Hahahahaha only you would have a fit over this

I said I like it, but it really depends on how they address the oline in free agency and the draft. I've been complaining about the oline since shanny got here.

I wish I could be more excited. 30 years old. 50% of his sacks came in the last two seasons of his 7 year career when he was on a star studded defensive line. Last year he had 3 multi sack games. 3 against the texans and their amazing offense. 2 against his old team, the steelers who were struggling offensively with a rookie qb, and after losing a lot of their offensive line. 2 more sacks against the bears, and fields..... 1 sack in 3 playoff games.... wtf are we paying 21 million a year for? This dude had an awesome year against one of the easiest schedules Everlast year, and has been average or below the rest of his career. I know he played in the Steelers 3-4, but I would have rather kept mccglichey than sign this guy. The closer I look, the more I dislike it. Please, someone convince me otherwise. We have Bosa to extend, and now it looks like we will probably have to let aijuk walk or get traded.

Because he's consistently been one of the top five DT's in football at generating pressure over the past few years.

Javon Hargrave among DTs in 2022:

#3 in PFF's Pass-Rushing Grade
#3 in Total Pressures
#3 in Pass-Rushing Productivity
#5 in Pass-Rush Win Rate

Yeah, it's about to scaaaary on that defensive line.

And I bet that once the contract structure comes out, its going to be less than $21 mil a year.

Okay Cohn

Yikes $21 mil a year for a down lineman in his 30's. I thought he would get $12 mil per max. Still paying the Dee Ford contract as well.

Try being realistic next time. $12 mil for an elite pass rushing DT is ridiculous.

Adam Schefter on ESPN said that Javon Hargrave was debating between the Browns and the 49ers and ultimately ended up choosing San Francisco.

Browns were in huge need of a DT too, so it was massive to bring Hargrave to SF.

Good choice, for many reasons beyond being a 49ers fan.

Compete for Superbowl's or play for Cleveland... Such a hard choice....

One more thing the #49ers loved about DT Javon Hargrave: Durability.

He's missed a total of 3 games in 7 years. Only two of those injury-related.

Hard to find FAs who are still producing at a high level and have no injury questions. Hargrave checks both, hence the price.

I was searching for a scouting report on his run defense and found this breakdown article. Lots of stuff mentioned. He did not grade out well versus the run.
