Catching up with the Jones

[Donn Beach]

What makes you think Bennett was way better

[Sibelius Hindemith]

Maybe not way better but certainly a more complete player. Wasn't MB considered one of the best DEs in the league for several years? Had a pretty good run from 2012 to 2018.

Wasn't MB considered one of the best DEs in the league for several years? Had a pretty good run from 2012 to 2018.

From 2015-17 he made 3 straight pro bowls and had AV of 31.

Jones the past three seasons had a AV of 17 and no Pro bowls.

Bennett was a really late bloomer. Best years wear age 30-32.

Was gonna say, Bennett was 30 years old in 2015. Jones is 26

Was gonna say, Bennett was 30 years old in 2015. Jones is 26

similar career path would be nice.

[Donn Beach]

Yeah, though I'll guess Jones is better than Bennett at age 26. I don't think it's like he needs a breakout

[Sibelius Hindemith]

Bennett entered the league at age 24 and became a starter at 26. Jones entered the league at age 22 and will be entering his 4th year as a starter in 2023. He should be ahead of Bennett's curve but i doubt it will go as high or far.

[Donn Beach]

He is ahead of Bennett's curve. Will he improve at the rate Bennett did after turning 26, probably not. I think you're looking at not regressing as opposed to needing to improve

[maoling]

I thought Dr. Dre'mont was a star.

I don't think I'd consider him a star, he's been a good player

Sure but concerning that Denver let him walk due to his run D.

But then, when has Denver been right about anything lately?
