Jerick 'Jet' McKinnon is a Chief.

He hasn't been anywhere near the player Kamara showed as a rookie but he does have the potential to be a mismatch nightmare guy in Kyle's offense. He has really good hands and he has big time speed but everything I have read on him is that he has really poor vision. This scares me. He was a pretty good player in Minnesota but could never take the leap to becoming a real good player and a difference maker. Hopefully that changes in SF

I blame most of his lack of production on Minnesota pushing touches to Peterson and Norv Turner. Like Boise said, CRIMINALLY underused. His athleticism and strength are off the charts, check his combine numbers. The rank is for overall that year, not RB class... Link

Event Stat Rank
Broad Jump 11'0" T-2nd
Vertical Jump 40'5" 3rd
Bench Press 32 reps T-8th
40-yard dash 4.41 6th

Joe Williams was handpicked by KS to fit his scheme. How'd that go?

Oh what?! Are you serious? McKinnon is worth for 7.5 millions than Hyde? Wow.. McKinnon should get 3.5 millions than 7.5 millions.

They are very different players. McKinnon is excels in areas that have value in today's game (aka, passing the ball). Hyde was maybe the worst RB in the NFL last season in the pass game. It's not hard to find players who can run the ball in this scheme. https://t.co/PHBIApDx6u

Ehh, this is a Tier 2 overpay for Lynch so far, right in there with the Malcolm Smith contract.

Tier 1, for Lynch, for 9ers history, and for NFL history, is the Juice contract. This is nothing compared to the overpay for Juice.

He is now the 4th highest paid RB. 4th. This isn't the end of the world but this is a big overpay.

Holy crap, this is a big overpay. I live in Vikings territory. I've watched this guy a couple dozen times. He has great straight line speed, can catch well ... and that's it. He does not have good vision which leads to many runs where he runs right into defenders because he has no creativity.

I am not saying he will be bad. He's the definition of mediocre. The issue is paying big money for mediocre when better RBs just signed for less and the draft is crazy deep.

This is the first time Lynch just flat out messed up in my opinion. I have faith but no matter how you cut it, this is a big overpay. Even if he ends up doing well, the fact remains his market value was much less.

Very, very odd.
