John Lynch - 49ers GM | Page 3651

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.

It's not going to happen. Just hope it's not the Chiefs or NFC team.

We could only dream for a Bosa Garrett D line. Watch the Rams offer 2 firsts and he's going to LA to wreck us twice a year

Would you trade 2 1sts, a 3rd and a 6th for Myles a 2026 2nd and 2026 7th?

That's what Mack went for when the Bears traded for him (SF reportedly offered just as much).

Yeah I was gonna say too many 1s. We went long enough without a 1 pick. I was leaning OL pick 11 but maybe the defensive trenches. We are in the 11 spot which doesn't happen often. We can't squander away picks for him. Another time another place..

But boy his cap hit is totally manageable

You give up 2 1sts for Garrett you damn as well better hit with the remaining picks for good depth and come out of nowhere starter here and there. Lack of depth and being too top heavy has been a downfall for this team

It could easily happen. 11th pick to Cleveland.

Could we just get Mack now instead. Would be cost less

He ain't Myles. Mack is near the end and is closer to retirement. I would make that trade in a heartbeat. This draft doesn't have anything remotely close to him in it. This draft is all about depth and getting guys on day 2/3 imo.

Oh I agree, I just think getting Myles is a pipe dream.
