This hire never made any sense at all. He was never a scout, a player personnel director, never a GM before. What business does he have evaluating and picking players?

He misses on some very early picks and gets busts. I'm very concerned about him as GM. He was inexperienced for this job.

He was a player and a broadcaster. But he had no business being a GM. The ownership made a terrible pick here IMO. He makes even less sense to me than Kyle Shannahan at head coach. I think you could actually make an argument for KS. But I don't see how you can for John Lynch. He doesn't belong in this position and the results show. We should hire a competent GM with experience and a proven track record. You know somebody that is actually qualified for the job and belongs in the job.

yet he's almost completely fixed the O-Line, despite your belief in him. His lack of experience isn't a huge deal when he surrounds himself with guys like Peters and Mayhew.

Mcglinchey looks like a nice pick so far and I think he will work out. He looks real good up to this point. But one guy doesn't fix our O Line. The Center we got in FA helps too. Our O Line has improved. We have other areas where we have failed like edge pass rusher and QB who is made of glass and we passed on Mahomes and have no backup. We are probably headed for 1 - 15. So I don't think you can claim this is a very good overall roster.

It's not a very good roster. A complete roster overhaul isn't fast. Most people in the NFL would disagree with you that CJ is not backup worthy.

CJ actually impresses me in very short time frames. He is just highly inconsistent, has some accuracy issues and has a bad overall roster he is dealing with. So it's not enough of a roster for most backups at least to come in and win.

If to you he's "highly inconsistent" yet putting up similar numbers to Jimmy G, then I don't know what to tell you man. Enjoy the weather in San Diego.

I don't think he is terrible at all. Mostly he has a super bad roster around him overall. He also is young. It's only his 2nd year I believe. So with a better roster and more experience he can be better. He puts together some competent drives. Just not enough to win I guess. We are 1 - 6. So we can't be too good right?

Just good enough to get you beat.

1-6 with what, 1 blowout loss? Compared to the Cards, Giants and Raiders, I think we are in better shape than all of them.

I just want people on this team at every position that know the system and eventually execute it well. Most of the QB's that know Kyle's system aren't available. Unless you want trash Matt Schaub.

I disagree, CJ is a good backup but not what you want in a franchise QB.

His TD/INT ratio is 11/13, Jimmy's TD/INT ratio is 12/8 with the 49ers. That is a huge difference.
I think if JL gets a call about Sherman and Joe he has the think long and hard about making those deals. We can easily get a 1st for Sherman and prob a 2nd for Joe.

Ridiculous to even compare the 2. Jimmy is a top 15 QB in the NFL who turned the fortunes around for this franchise last season. CJ will never be a starter and hopefully can amount to being a decent backup for us.

I actually agree with him. At least for Joe. Dude could be extremely useful for a contender.

No team is giving up a 1st for Sherman or a 2nd for Staley at his age. The Sherman for a 1st is hilarious though.
