Round 6, Pick 198 | DL DJ Jones
It took a couple years for Jones to get rolling, but he became a valuable piece of the 49ers’ defensive line in 2019. He had the best year of his career with 2.0 sacks and two tackles for loss in 11 games – all starts – before suffering a high ankle sprain that put him on IR for the rest of the year. Jones should be ready to go for the start of next season with the nose tackle spot all but secured going into training camp. Finding a quality starter in Round 6 is a big win in the draft.
