The Coaching/Front Office Carousel

If I was Denver, Houston or Arizona, I'd be looking at Peyton, Harbaugh and maybe McVay before I would hire any current assistant. That doesn't mean any of them would take those jobs but I'd prefer experience to any coordinator. A lot of really good coordinators have failed as a HC at least in their first try. Big difference between HC and coordinator. OCs tend to do a little better than DCs although there are exceptions.

Let the raid of our coaching staff and front office begin.

This is how we win. Compensatory picks.

The 49ers need to name Adam Peters their new GM with the quickness.

That would mean promoting or moving on from Lynch, or Lynch going back into broadcasting. I don't see that happening.

You don't see a promotion for him? Why not? He's always been the face, or the media guy as opposed to the nuts and bolts guy, which I see Adam Peters as.

I think it's smarter to hold onto the smart people and not let them walk out the door. That can be accomplished without moving on from Lynch.

Just make Lynch Vice President of football operations or something like that. I assume that the Niners aren't going to allow Ryans to interview until they're done with the playoffs. Most assistants interview for several jobs before they are offered one. Then it's up to him if he wants to take the job. Ryans is young enough that he will get many more opportunities so he doesn't need to be in a hurry. He can build on his resume and wait until the ideal situation comes along.

Do you really think denying a minority candidate opportunities to interview and missing out on open jobs is really the culture you want to be associated with?

There's a certain former NFL head coach now coaching in Germany that would definitely be available.

Available for who?

I see nothing wrong with promoting him. But like I said that would mean moving on from, or promoting Lynch. I don't see Lynch going for the latter at all, and even less so the former. By all accounts Lynch has done a great job. "Promoting" Lynch to some VP position to make Adams the GM would be a slap in Lynch's face, to put it bluntly. I just don't see the team doing this. That will make the FO and overall culture look very bad. Why invite that kind of disfunction?

That's cool. I don't see that interpretation as remotely accurate in the least. Perhaps Adam Peters has been being groomed the entire time to take over the role.

Lynch stayed to be a part of the organization when we had a team that broke through to win the Super Bowl, which may happen this season.

After that? Who knows? Maybe he stays, maybe a TV gig becomes more appealing for him.

Went 7-5 this year.

During a SB run, yes.

Didn't we hire our current HC while he was in a Super Bowl run we interviewed and agreed to the terms while ATL was still playing ball, right?

He couldn't find a DL job in the NFL? Not sure how well he did after us, but I thought he was a pretty good DL coach.

McVay? Like Sean McVay?

Word is he is burned out I think the reality is he's staring at a FQB with spinal issues and no first round pick this year and none drafted over the past many years and he knows he's holding the bag on a team with the window shut.
