Even TB said he wasn't the one who made Gamble the Asst GM, so the FO had to see something to promote him.

I will listen when i get a chance, thanks !

Incorrect. It was Baalke's idea to promote Gamble. He said it himself.

"Niners general manager Trent Baalke said Sunday it was his idea to promote front-office executive Tom Gamble to assistant general manager, and he knew the move would invite speculation about his job security."

thanks, was trying to go off memory.

So if TB is out then it looks like TG is out also or demoted back to scout

Fired or not, he'll still attend Jed's Glory hole parties, still be part of the Triangle 69 crew (Jed/Marathe/Baalkaca) and still whisper sweet nothings in Jed & Marathe's ears, which will still lead to drafting ACL bums
Which is scarier, Baalke returning or Maathe being the GM?

Why you don't claim that. If he had multi years left maybe, but there is no point in throwing away 800k for essentially nothing

How is going from Chief Strategy Officer and Executive VP in charge of football operations to GM a promotion?
He is already pulling the strings.

He's assuming more power in addition to what he already has. Paraag and his algorithms would have final say on draft picks and free agents.

Maiocco confirmed on 95.7 today that he's heard the Yorks are not high on Gamble.

I think he played GM prior to and during the Nolal/Scot eras and has been a big influence on the GM duties since.
They would save a lot of money by adding another role to his duties rather than hiring someone else so that is a plus for the Yorks.
