Saved millions, I guess winning is not the goal.

I guess.

This. Roll the dice on injury prone guys in the 6th and 7th rounds, not the 1st. Especially not massive linemen with a degenerative knee condition.

Stupid pick. Almost as stupid as the Foster pick.

Agreed. If they didn't get Trent Williams, this whole fiasco would have been a total disaster.

The only thing Lynch and Shanahan have at this point is a penchant for hitting on 5th and 6th round picks.

His torso is huge, can't support the rest of his body. This drafting of injured players goes back further than the current regime.

I don't understand the drafting of injured players part. Was he injured at the time of the draft?

Wow. It's true. So sad that, even after taking a D lineman in the first round all of those years, only 2 panned out. And being the smart GM he is, Lynch traded 1 of them away. THIS, my friends, is why we can't have nice things….

Edit. Just saw that they had to reconstruct his ACL. Doubt we see this dude next year. He and Jalen Hurd have a pretty sweet deal, though, you gotta admit.

I don't get how an ACL reconstruction is the remedy. Did he tear a ligament or something?

He needs 2 knee transplants.

It's a game that spits out the players when they can no longer play. I'm glad Kinlaw made some money, he's young so maybe he can come back. He'll be out a year, it's a tough road.

Yeah, he'll miss all of '22, I reckon.
