The #49ers are hiring FOX analyst John Lynch as their GM, source says. Out of nowhere.

49ers are giving John Lynch an almost unprecedented six-year deal to become their GM, per sources.

Wow. Says a lot that the 49ers had to give Lynch, with no GM experience, six years to take the job.

Again, no judgment of Lynch (yet), but I think the lack of leaks the last two days was a tell: Jed and Paraag were/are STRUGGLING.
