But personally I think Lynch is far more problematic than Shanahan. It's hard to say what Shanahan really is. He is playing with a real spotty roster and a GM who doesn't pick well and picks bust after bust and then expects him to win with that. It would be better if your GM helps you fill out the roster rather than handicap you with so many bad picks.
Bust after bust? 2017 was a little rough but both the 2018 and 2019 drafts look quite good so far. McGlinchey, Warner, Pettis, Thomas, Bosa are all starter talents from the 1st three rounds. Add in later round hits like Kittle and potentially Wishnowsky and Greenlaw, as well as role players (and perhaps some future starters) like Deebo, Hurd, James, Moore, and Witherspoon and you got some pretty good drafts that have improved both starters and depth.
Yep, nothing but busts.
