That's just a list of the 1st rounders that didn't work out or play up to expectation. Bosa isn't on the list either.
His 2 and 4 comment presumably is a 'record' of their success, with Bosa and Aiyuk being the successful two, and Trey not included because it's too early to grade.
How does the 2 and 4 compare to the rest of the league? Is it average or below average? Its hard to judge something without something else to compare it to.
Be my guess. But I think it would throw this thread off topic.
But you're missing the point of why I posted Lynch and Shanahan's picks in the 1st round.
(Edit)
What was the point of the statement other than to take a jab at the FO for their 1st round picks? How they have faired compared to the rest of the league is very relevant.
Like others have said. Its not very honest of you to throw MM on the bad pick side when he will be signing a second contract for more than we can afford to offer him. That would actually make the FO 3-3 in the 1st round with Trey Lance still being an unknown at this point.
Yes the point was they have done more bad than good in the 1st round. And not how has Lynch compare to the rest of the league that wasn't the point.
As for McGlinchey, there were other ways they could've went besides RT, 49ers definitely could've used Minkah Fitzpatrick or Derwin James. I thought McGlinchey was being groomed to be the future LT, which IMO would've made the pick deemed worthy. You and I know McGlinchey wasn't worth the #9 overall pick, he's a horrible pass blocker and commits tons of penalties, not to mention has only managed to start 3 full seasons outta the 5 he's been in SF. Sure he'll most likely get a pretty solid contract, but that's because of inflation, demand and not how well he's performed.
Saying someone is bad at something without anything to compare it to makes it not credible in my book.
3-3 makes the FO 50/50 in the 1st round. With the jury still out on Trey Lance. I am willing to bet that 50/50 in the 1st round are actually good odds.
