Stop with the stupid questions. Thx. Enjoy complaining about something else on another thread.

We have, when I came in — you think about where we are, we're in kind of the epicenter of innovation. And the Niners have always been as a team of innovation. So we've got people like Paraag, who handles our cap, but also kind of looks over our strategy. So we've got a great research and development — I call it analytics, they don't like that, they like research and development.

The previous regime wasn't really using them. I figure as long as they're here, we'll see what they can bring. And we found that it's been incredibly valuable. And we've tried to kind of intertwine them in our scouting process. Kyle's bought into that.

And so, we are using that, but ultimately, we look at the film. One of the things that I mentioned is that Kyle has a great — and his staff, they've been together a long time and they've run the same system. So they've been able to articulate to me, our front office, our scouting staff: here's the characteristics we're looking for at each position. And then I think the same on defense. Robert Saleh came from that Seattle tree, and so they have a real good understanding — I feel like that's why we were able to build such a great defense down in Tampa. We did the same thing for years, and when you do that — you look at teams like Pittsburgh, they've been running the same defense forever, they know exactly what they're looking for.

So I think that's been a big advantage. We've got to continue to make that as such. And then the way we're working as a front office with our coaches. That's something Kyle and I signed up for, to do this thing together, and I think we've had great collaboration. If we continue to do that, I think we can continue to get better. We got in this thing to win championships, and we're building towards that. It's not a finished product by any means, but we do feel like we're getting better, and that there's a really exciting vibe here.

Strategy of what? Free agency? Draft?

Glad to see ShanaLynch are far more open to analytics as a tool for both.

Parag is a snake, he's good at being cheap and making sure the 49ers never have a chance at top free agents.
