Jumping from one championship team to the other, we come to San Francisco interior defender Javon Kinlaw. Kinlaw has been a solid, if a bit underwhelming, defender for the 49ers since coming to the team as a first-round draft pick in 2020.
He doesn’t fill up the box score, and you probably want to see more production from someone drafted that high, but much like Wilkins in Miami, the contributions Kinlaw makes to the team go beyond the box score.
Unlike Wilkins, I’m not sure those contributions outweigh the lack of production. This year alone, Kinlaw only got six starts all season, and was the fourth-rated player at the position on his own team, behind Arik Armstead, Javon Hargrave, and Sebastian Joseph-Day.
It may be time for a change of scenery for Kinlaw, who still has a lot of talent and now has some championship experience – experience that could help a team like Minnesota trying to take that next step.
