You can blame the modern NFL 100% for this - Kyle drafting Lance (or Fields or similar) was unthinkable maybe just 2 years prior.

Hell of a gamble by Lynch and Kyle. IMO their plan to play and grow him was solid, but injuries derailed it. He should have gone to CFL to get some actual playing time once we cut him.

Lol

According to a lot of folks on here he hasn't grown, so how was that a solid plan for a #3 overall pick? The expectation from that type of pick is incredible!
Giving up three first round draft picks made it even more unsettling than the Solomon Thomas pick.

Meh. Even Bill Walsh whiffed on his fair share of first picks in the draft. The first three names from Bill's first three 49er drafts, in order: Ken MacAfee, James Owens and Earl Cooper. Coop wasn't horrible. But he wasn't great either. Walsh just nailed rounds 2-12 though. Then, starting in '81 with the pick of Ronnie Lott, BW rolled. It's the middle rounds of the 1980 and 1981 teams that really built the first SB Champion squad. Shanny and Lynch have a similar talent with drafting talent in the middle to late rounds.

It wasn't. It was comically bad decision making. Beyond arrogant if it didn't actually seem panicky.

Call in Kap? Lol

Truth.

I miss Bill, when football was at its absolute finest. He had a finesse that Kyle would never. But tbf, no other coach would either.
