Young and Lott are the two players that definitely made the players around them better.
Montana, Rice, Lott, and Young is the undisputed player Mt. Rushmore. There is no player in modern 49ers history that tops any one of those 4. The people trying to shoehorn Gore in there must be under 25.

I'd have Craig on it before Young. Craig has more rings and, to me, Young represents more failures than championships.

I also would choose Craig before Young. I am cool with my #4 spot being Craig or Lott, whichever.
