San Francisco 49ers free agency: Defensive tackle Javon Hargrave fills the A-gap and the Niners' biggest roster hole.

If you were hoping that the Niners would acquire Lamar Jackson (through a complicated series of actions, including him not signing his franchise tag), you can now let go of that dream. Jones, Hargrave is a prototype player for the 49ers’ defensive front. It’s hard to say right now if the Niners will trade Kinlaw or keep him around for another season. He’s a squatty fellow (6-foot-1, 310 pounds), but he comes off the line like a lightning bolt (34.5-inch vertical leap) and is solid at moving people out of his way. The difference between the 49ers and Eagles that Sunday in Philadelphia wasn’t defensive tackle play, but it might have been the story had the Niners not run out of quarterbacks. The NFC Championship Game was arguably the worst game of Kinlaw’s career, though that’s a crowded field without much to counter.

San Francisco 49ers Add Javon Hargrave, Lose Jimmy Garoppolo ... (Forbes)

The first day of the NFL free agent tampering period brought a whole bunch of action from the San Francisco 49ers. From signing Javon Hargrave and Sam ...

In fact, he made it hard for the 49ers to put Ward back in at free safety once the latter returned. Hargrave will now team up with reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year Nick Bosa in forming an elite duo along San Francisco defensive line. Ward hinted that he was going to leave the 49ers in free agency before the market opened up. He’s now set to be replaced by a free agent signing in Hargrave who inked a deal similar to what Buckner got in Indianapolis. He was unhappy about playing a multitude of roles in the defensive backfield. The expectation is that Gipson will start next to All-Pro safety Talanoa Hufanga next season with San Francsico looking to add a young safety in the 2023 NFL Draft. McGlinchey, 28, was a stabilizing force for the 49ers at right tackle throughout his five-year career in Northern California. Immediately after it was reported that Garoppolo signed with Las Vegas, the 49ers brought in Darnold on a one-year deal. Including his three-year run in New Jersey, the still young quarterback has thrown 61 touchdowns with 55 interceptions in 55 starts. Once completed when the new NFL year opens on Wednesday, it will make Hargrave one of the highest-paid players at his position in the NFL. It was almost a foregone conclusion that the likes of quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey and defensive back Jimmie Ward would leave San Francisco once the market opened. This gives Garoppolo an opportunity to start elsewhere while providing the veteran with a big paycheck.

Including the postseason, the 49ers reeled off 12 straight victories before falling to the Eagles in Philly for the NFC championship. SF went on a hellacious run over the second half of the season, winning 10 in a row to end the ‘22 campaign. With Hargrave helping to anchor the middle, Philly had one of the best defenses in the league. It’s funny how the former third-round pick has elected to join the team his Eagles beat in the NFC title game a couple of months ago. Now Hargrave goes from one of the best to the best defense in many major statistical categories last year for the Niners. That’s a nice pay increase for the Pro Bowler while the rich get richer in San Francisco.
