John Lynch - 49ers GM | Page 266 | 49ers Webzone Forum

Lucked into Shanahan but Lynch as a GM? Wtf?? So many qualified GMs 49ers interviewed...and in the end - they decided to hire a guy who has ZERO experience working in a NFL Front Office. He has ZERO experience as a scout at any level. I understand, so many potential GM candidates rejected 49ers. But, to hire a guy who has never held a position that is in no way related to a day-2-day job profile of a GM is unbelievable. I'm sure Lynch is a smart guy...he was a smart player...but that has NOTHING to do with being a GM. Why take the risk at this time? --------------- edit: After having some time to digest this news...wish him all the best and I hope he proves ppl wrong. Still don't understand why we needed to take such a risk but it is what it is now. I do have to say - his first presser made a positive impression.

Kap: I do what I can.
Lynch: Good. So, we will be acquiring another QB and how do you feel about mentoring the new guy?
Kap: Sure.

News: Kap to opt out.

lol "mentoring". I cant think of a QB less qualified to mentor a rookie QB than Kaepernick. Jared Goff maybe?

"So youre going to want to spend about 50% of your time working out in the gym, 40% of your time chasing women, and 10% studying film."

ILB, Poe, Berry and WR in free agency.

Mike Williams, QB early and QB later.

Make it happen, Lynch!

Here's a more thorough break down...

30% training and practice. 25% catering to his girl (she wears pants). 20% on social media. 15% looking in the mirror, playing video games, miscellaneous stuff, then study film. 7% shopping / eating organic vegetables. 3% hoping and praying he won't have to face Seattle ever again.

When I talked to John Lynch on Friday: "Next week could be a fun week, in terms of a lot of movement." The #49ers expect to fill out staff.

My shock over the Lynch hire, has been turning more and more optimistic as we go along

Something feels right
