Not comparing the player, I'm saying Jimmy was signed as a starter in Las Vegas and the 49ers were only awarded a 4th round comp. He signed a 3 yr 72m contract which was a good sized contract at the time. Jones is likely not getting a big contract when he leaves. They only got a 4th comp for Jimmy. They aren't getting a 3rd round comp for Jones unless he signs a massive contract which is unlikely.
9ers were only awarded a 4th because he didnt play enough. Its not just about how much a guy signs for, how much they play in the subsequent season also matters.
