Yes

So he was touched by hand of G**. He'll be ok.
Good luck Lynch & Shanny

Go Niners!

Mark Dominik would be my guess. Lynch knows him from his Tampa Days, Shanahan knows him from his Tampa days.


Basically they are going for the Broncos setup.

Lynch-Public face of the front office and franchise

Marathe-Contracts+salary cap

Dominik+Gamble-Personnel
Sounds like they interviewed them weeks ago and the loser who was the leak is gone.. Media had no clue what was going on with this search the whole time..

Of course this is a shock but the 2011 fans.. err I mean the fans that have been around for along and just are doom and gloomers will whine and whine and whine

This will either be a home run or another major bump in the road..

And before all you doom and glommers continue, Kyle is still the next coach and must have really been on board with Lynch

How about we give him a chance..no1 knows if he's horrible or great as a GM..

That's crazy. The guy has NO EXPERIENCE. We need an entire ROSTER.

Insane.
As long as we get Shanahan, whatever, but WTF?

This must mean that Shanny has control of the roster, but still, WTF?

You have to give York some credit. Not easy to find someone willing to take a job as GM when the position has little authority. Paraag does all of the salary cap, contracts and analytics, and the new coach having control of the roster. Not easy to get a professional to act the puppet for the other two.

Guess the stories about the 49ers FO scaring away the real GM candidates was true.

LOL.

Welp, as long as we got Kyle I'm satisfied. Let's see what happens

Why would Kyle come after this debacle?

What debacle? You don't think he's fine with it?
