Not me, personally.

Dawand Jones in 2023:
419 pass blocking snaps
21 total pressures allowed (3 of them sacks)


Jonah Williams, for comparison:
730 pass blocking reps
41 total pressures allowed (8 of them sacks)

Dawand Jones was right about the same number of pressures allowed as Jonah if he had played the same number of snaps.
Yes, fewer sacks projected than Jonah, which would be an improvement.
However, Dawand Jones didn't have to go against Garrett/Smith twice a year like Jonah did.
Browns also have a way better scheme and OL coach than the Bengals have when it comes to success of the OL, which is to say Jones could have performed (much) worse if he were a Bengal compared to as a Brown.

Jones did perform better though that I expected, so I'll give you that, but I don't think he's a stud, personally.
