John Lynch - 49ers GM | Page 3483

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.

Nobody is crying I'm happy with Chase. Maybe he'll help with the pass gaming issues but all I see if guys getting roasted every week or getting called for Holding Pass Interference

Still didn't fix the biggest weaknesses on the team - CB or RT.

Secondary is a more pressing issue.

It's pretty well established at this point.

I admitted he's a good addition.

Possible, but unlikely. Can't think of too many examples of that happening.

I think RG is a bigger problem than RT.

Cornerback Jaylon Johnson will not engage in contract extension talks with the Chicago Bears for the rest of the season and will become a free agent in the offseason, per @JosinaAnderson.

Now that we've essentially punted on this season, maybe we'll try to sign this guy in FA and go all in on 2024.

He's just attacking fellow fans because he has no options in life.

Ah yes, blame the secondary for being 26th vs the run
