Agree. The only way to stop the poaching is for us to lose a lot. Personally, I don't like that way of stopping the poaching.

is this the guy responsible for finding Brock Purdy?

Lol no. Brian Griese and Steve Slowick are responsible for that.

Sucks to lose him, but congrats to him getting the promotion.

Yeah, bummer but kudos to him! Hope he doesn't try to take too many people with him.

Well, you know the answer to *that.* Of *course* he will try to poach every person he can get his hands on from the 49ers.

I'm not saying Peters isn't good but he's not indispensable. It's not like actually losing your GM or HC. There are other people out there that can do the job.

As I write this they announced that Peters was hired by WA.

disagree.

I'm not saying he wasn't good but if he was that important they could have promoted him to GM and given Lynch a bump at the same time. These things happen every year around the league but somehow teams carry on. They'll find someone to replace him and it may turn out to be somebody better. You never know.

NY85 is right in the sense that Kyle runs the show though. Having said that, losing Peters is going to hurt a bit. Not a fatal loss, but a loss nonetheless. Sort of like losing Jimmy. Yeah folks don't credit Jimmy with much in the way of winning games these past couple of seasons - but he was an important part of the offense. Same, I think, with Peters. Hope Lynch and Kyle can find a Brock Purdy version of an assistant GM in the offseason to replace Adam.

You have insulted Peters by comparing him to Jimmy.

I'm betting on Frank Gore.

Damn
But you know, Lynch and Shany has been preparing for this the last couple of years and I'm sure they have a heart to heart talk with AP. It's just one of those he's ready to get out of the shadows so to speak. I'm sure they have a plan B in place. Good luck to Peters.

Yeah, but we may lose Klint Kubiak, who's our pass game coordinator, who is interviewing with, I forget which team, for their OC job, I think the Bears.

Darn. I forgot about that. Crap. Time to convince Andrew Luck to coach for Kyle!

disagree. Lynch IMO is more of a PR guy and project manager than talent evaluator. Kyle is the mastermind, but to downplay how important Peters was to the roster building is silly.

I don't want 5th-7th & UDFA's anymore. LOL

I honestly don't care where our players come from in the draft, if they hit on another 5th, or Mr. Irrelevant, who cares if their 3rd rd picks don't work out, as long as you hit on around 30% of your picks, you're a good GM, and Lynch is a good GM, and Peters I wish the best to him, thankfully for him he doesn't need to deal with Snyder there.

Agree about the 30%. I just hope that doesn't drop to 20% without Adam.

Damn! We should require all white employees to use the same tanning lotion my boy Trump uses and then I can get my lil cousin to outfit em with some cornrows. Gotta keep that comp pick train moving!

Damn, I wanted to promote Lynch to President and Adams to GM. I think we will see a falloff in draft success.

It's disgusting they can at least wait until the 49ers win a Super Bowl. Don't see anybody stealing KCs staff
I see Adams going to the Commanders as 49ers gaining a front office ally for potential trades. Good for both parties. I hope you have great success Adam (just not at expense of 49ers).
I wonder who he will hire as the HC? I wonder if Bobby Slowik will get an interview?
He is no longer a Niner? Thank you for helping rebuild us...now
