John Lynch - 49ers GM | Page 3708

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.

Nothing is done, but the Bosa brothers want to be together and probably will get there this year. Which likely means this will be a moderate deal + incentives.

this is nice to hear. Bosa was the best player on the field in week 1 vs LV. Then the next week I think, he injured his groin and wasn't the same all season. If we can get him and he stays relatively healthy, he and little bro would be very exciting duo to watch.

Never realized Nick didnt get the chance to play with him at OSU. I can see why he is excited to get Joey to the team.

If this happens, which i am not that high on, Joey should atleast be motivatef with Nic on the team.Joey brings inconsistency and is injury prone.
I hope he comes cheap.and with a short term.

How credible is Frascella? Granted it feels like only a matter of time since we have Nick.

Signing Bosa and Allen changes nothing about the draft. Both will be in a rotation and the need to get younger and bulk up the DL long term remains.

Signing those two, who I both believe will be 30 next season, is a great start. I'm also all for doing what it takes to draft Mason Graham.

Not at all. But he's probably just going of TK's post.

I got a good feeling if this actually happens.

If he can remain healthy it's an awesome addition.

Bosa + Bosa. Which means our need for edge player just dropped a lot. Therefore interior defensive line or offensive line. DT, OT, OG, C (solve in FA hopefully) and S (Malaki Starks).

Assuming we keep Floyd and matos, what about Jackson? Sounds like his injury isn't going well. I do believe in the old saying you can never have enough pass rushers.

I like Starks, but after seeing more of the prospects this is a very deep draft at safety with some serious speed so I'm wondering if it's wiser to take a guy in the middle rounds.
