“Lynch hasn’t had the best drafts the last 4 or 5 years” – Ira
In the last four years the 49ers have won 43 games. And been to two Conference title games and a SB. Five playoff wins.
The Bucs? 36 wins and ONE playoff win, never making a conference title game.
Better check your sheet Ira.

Ted hurst will get starting snaps at some point bucs had no x receiver when Mike left they do now.

And Joe will strongly second Ira. Lynch’s drafts are bordering on horrific. If Jason Licht p!ssed away as many first round pick as Lynch has, Licht wouldn’t be able to step outside his house without a SWAT team.
Both Ira and Joe and it seems #DraftMedia and the pen and mic club in San Francisco have checked that sheet, too. Lynch is getting killed in the Bay area and by Warren Sharp.
It seems, in reality, someone else needs to check yo’ sheet.

@Joe
In that case just imagine what they would feel like with Bowles as the HC\DC???
Riddle me that one!
Bowles wouldn’t barely have two wins to rub together in that division!!!
Pure insanity and laughable at best. Keep fighting for those limitations Joe!!!

Lynch ate Lichts lunch when he signed Evans out from under him.
Talk about a slap in the face. And he didn’t use his hand to do the slapping.
I’m sure Bud Licht enjoyed it too.

Kind od agree wirh Lee that they should have drafted another pass rusher in addition to Bain. Love the Bain pick, but a lot rides on it. Walker cant be counted on for anythinf, he could be another Braswell for all we know. In a deep draft I think it was a wasted opportunity. At very least thought a double uo at ILB or edge was needed.

Well, at least Ira and friends are not toeing the party line on Trotter.

LOL
Got a better riddle for ya:
How is it the Bucs have two Super Bowl wins this century and the mighty John Lynch draft guru-led 49ers have zero?
And another riddle: Joe even saw with his own eyes last year how a broken down Bucs team, relying on Kam Johnson and Tez Johnson, beat the mighty John Lynch draft guru-led 49ers. How did that happen with John Lynch drafting all of these all-stars?

Me and old Junebug love our favorite podcast. We heard the Sage and edge rush Joe somehow compare Bucky and Bain. They dropped that quickly- very quickly. I don’t blame them. But I know where they were going with that. And it wasn’t to a good place.

High ceiling. Low floor. This is a risky business.
