John Lynch - 49ers GM

Save for this year, his body of work is highly suspect. Turnover machine

Not defending the defense but it doesn't help when the offense has short drives which leads to the defense getting gashed especially with the injuries

I like Lynch. But this seems like the only option. Way to many bad contract decisions on this team right now. Always paying guys at the wrong time. Never willing/able to be smart enough to deal players to other teams and only ever trying and failing at the worst points in time. Multiple misses in the draft and free agency. Defense has continuously regressed over the years. They got to take the roster completely out of Kyle's hands with a new GM. Obviously a completely new DC and system. You could make an argument for Kyle too. But I think you got to give him another year.

Amazing how Johnny Boy has managed to live off of two good drafts.

Ouch

Ouch

Traded to #3 with no clue who to pick

Can't wait for the ol' "Yeah we were embarrassed" presser incoming only for Kyle to never learn anything from it and wonder why it keeps happening over and over again

Lynch isn't making these decisions he's not the shot caller.

Not just Lynch but Shanahan is a big part of this, too. We're seeing the results now from the so many above recent misses. Very limited talent with this team's depth, leaving this team with a razor thin margin of error when some of that depth is needed, is relied upon. Also has left the team with some poor OL options that are somehow considered starters by this team.

Contract decisions are made by Paraag Marathe.

It's almost unbelievable how bad those two drafts are aside from Purdy.

What makes it even worse is that the second best player in those 2 drafts is Sam Womack whom we for some reason thought sucked and now he's balling out in Indianapolis.

Lynch is the GM, but I don't believe he made all of those picks on his own accord.

Kyle wears the drafting and other failed personnel decisions as much if not more.

Kyle forced some portion of the failed picks over eight years. Joe Williams, for one.

We couldn't afford these failed decisions before and we definitely can't afford them moving forward.

Yup. Can't wait for this softball sit-down interviews with Greg "dress like I'm 20" Papa or Matt "bluesky" Maiocco.

Trent Baalke has a better win/loss record when GM here.

Trent made some good picks too. People forget he drafted a lot of core players from the Harbaugh run and also a few of the early Kyle players.
