John Lynch - 49ers GM

4ML · 2017-01-29T17:29:58-08:00

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.

Mangold with Kilgore as back up. Just saying.

He's a UFA and surely won't be re-signed.

#49ers need a lot of pieces for Kyle Shanahan's offense. Besides Pierre Garcon, they're among the teams in on FB Kyle Juszczyk, per sources.

f**k that. bring back Bruise! best FB in the biz.

Kyle Juszcyk would be a great signing. Terrible for us to try and spell however.

Agreed, and FB make pittance, so it would be hard to overpay!

From the 2012 to '15 drafts, 23 of #49ers' 40 picks have been waived, traded or retired. Quinton Patton is UFA, seems unlikely to re-sign.

lol man Trent sucked

Now we know why he was cut

There's some truth to this statement. Martin never wanted to play football. His brother got him to do it. It was really a means to an end. https://t.co/Qsi3eRDiGm

Needed to get a payday. That's understandable. What's not is how Baalke didn't know that s**t. Probably thought he could fool him like he did jed for so many years.
