The 49ers would be thrilled if UDFA defensive lineman Darrion Daniels can be a primary backup to nose tackle D.J. Jones.
In an ideal world, the San Francisco 49ers will develop undrafted rookie Darrion Daniels into a key backup at nose tackle behind the starter, D.J. Jones.
Run-stuffing defensive linemen aren’t the priority they once were not too long ago, and players of this ilk generally are targeted either late in the NFL Draft or as undrafted free agents.
