John Lynch - 49ers GM | Page 3711

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.

That's too much for Adams. Like $10m/year too much

Sources: Davante Adams to the #Rams. He gets a 2-year deal worth $46M with $26M guaranteed. He wanted to stay on the West Coast.

I think it's time to accept that this team is more than likely on the decline… the rams have to be the odds on favorite to come out of the west this year

Nope

Despite finishing last, the 49ers are favored to win the NFC West again 👀

Hate the admit it but you're right. Adams is still playing at a high level and what a fair contract.

let's see what SF does in FA and the draft. Niners have 6th best odds to win SB right now, and are favored to win the west.
I like Adams, but he didn't do a damn thing in New York. Dude was invisible

We have very different opinion of what is fair.

How much better/more productive is Adams over Kupp? Seems like a wash to me.

This has nothing to do with faith, this is about the favorite odds of winning the west. It was already close odds the Niners dropped Collins, Rams added Adams.

I know it's ridiculously easy for me to sound like a coper right now, but $23M/yr for Adams is quite a bit. He's still very good but this ain't 2019 anymore.

That said we'll probably overpay for Joey so I'll sound dumb soon lol
