I wasn't blaming Jones. But he was a developmental player we drafted for SPARQ. Jerry trying to hit upside.
I see our DT rotation as Collins, Woods, Crawford, Hill, with Hill maybe getting 20% snaps. We've been in worse shape, and often. Usually, in fact.
Going developmental at DT made sense this year, as we've got our clear starters in Collins and Woods, our clear rotational pass rusher in Crawford, and don't need that many snaps out of the rookie. Next year is when we need snaps when Collins leaves. Hence, developmental. This way we're getting more in the future when we need it, if we made the right call on Hill.
We have one of the 5 worst DT tackle rotations in the NFL. That whole group is predicated on cheap contracts and Marinelli getting them to play above their pay grade.
