Jones accomplished his rookie cope with the Broncos and had a number of groups pursuing him, and Seattle prevailed. He’s recorded at the very least 5.5 sacks in every of the earlier three seasons and has proven himself to be very versatile. Should you dig deeper than the sacks, his different stats are spectacular and among the many NFL’s elite.

That’s decrease than I believed Dre’Mont Jones would get. Looks like an amazing deal for the #Seahawks. A means for them to get a man who can play throughout the defensive position (5, 4, 4i, 3, 2i) and with the mirror stepping methods that precipitated points too. Plus real inside cross rush! https://t.co/HevwnimPQN

With out trying it up, a $17 million common might very properly be the most important exterior free agent contract the Seahawks have executed underneath Pete Carroll and John Schneider. This can be a important departure from their conventional ready for the second wave of free company to make their signings.
Jones is just 26 years previous and out of doors of Javon Hargrave, who signed a four-year, $84 million contract with the San Francisco 49ers, was one of many prime accessible inside defensive linemen in free company.
Primarily based on what he informed Josina Anderson, he’s fairly stoked to be making the journey as much as the Pacific Northwest.
Dre’Mont Jones to me on why he selected Seattle: “I really feel like they’ve the most important perception in me. They’ve a very promising crew, and I’m trying ahead to transitioning to that metropolis.” #Seahawks
