That's exactly my point! Lynch is thinking too short term. And "fit" and "leadership" don't mean s**t if you have mediocre talent level. And a QB like Cousins is gong to need talent like Peyton Manning had with the Broncos his SB year. Guys like Zuttah, Malcom Smith, Garcon (as a #1) & declining Dumervil are not going to cut it. In fact, the 49ers with Cousins should expect about the same result as the 2017 Redskins produce.
Still finding it difficult to follow your line of thinking. Long term success is to be built through the draft. How is signing mediocre talent, on short term affordable deals in free agency counter to long term thinking? Do you think lynch signed garcon thinking we win the next 2 super bowls?
I think Lynch's plan is Cousins to Garcon for a SB win, and I think it's a s**t plan.
I see nothing that Lynch has said anywhere to indicate he thinks we are going to the Super Bowl at the end of next season. Quite the opposite, in fact. Lynch is building for the long term and has made that point time after time.
If he's adding a veteran, franchise QB & isn't playing for a SB run, then he's even dumber than I thought.
