[@jonq8714]

As a niners fan, the conversation from 2:48 on makes me feel confident for the first time in 15 years that the right people are running the 49ers... they called it.

[@nick6956]

Good prediction!

[@maddiebeyer3128]

Lynch made a promise to his team, and lived up to it. Props to him!

[@rossibellinghiere8952]

John Lynch and Kyle shanahan are very talented NFL and NCAA football men.power to them!

[@cato8767]

I love this man I wish we had a GM like him. Their coach ain't too bad either.

[@cato8767]

But what if they got Mahomes instead of Solomon. Sheeesh...

[@graylobo133]

4:57 creepy twins in the back! uuuugg

[@sammydelorenzi]

Shanahan looks like Lynch’s daughter’s boyfriend who doesn’t watch football lol

[@joshuagenecobb051]

Thank you John Lynch! What a great hire!

[@omla49ers70]

Everything is great but the fact that they took Thomas at 3 is killing me man

[@iamamidgetstripper1082]

That guy at 2:49 predicted the future 😂

[@philipcallado5693]

Paraag's a genius. He knows the cap, the draft board and analytics like the back of his hand. Finally he's with a regime that will let him do his thing. Baalke stunted him, IMO.

[@gibster9624]

I didn't know we have a sick draft room. They have actual smart boards. I'm pretty sure San Diego is still using marker boards. Ravens GM started off his legendary career getting a linebacker and a lineman in the first round. The future is bright.

[@josh1897]

That draft turned out great...

[@andrewomahony9260]

Damn, look at Kyle's amazing passion for the 49ers brand and logo when he's talking about who to take...

[@audioplugg5310]

Bet your GM can't even do 10 pushups 😏 #9ers

[@9erjoeempire526]

Believe,they made a few mistakes but that's how you learn love having coach SHANAHAN and G.M John LYNCH NINER EMPIRE is in great hands🗣️ GO NINERS 💪

[@22trainboy]

I wish Reuben foster panned out for us and I hope he's doing better now too

[@jessep2622]

Can we get this 2021 version please?

[@seanwolenski3345]

He won't be the next Matt Millen. Millen seemed to hate being a GM and always let his authority and ego get the best of him. Millen didn't take the job as serious as he should of. Millen never moved his family to Michigan and always went back to live in Pennsylvania. John Lynch won't be in over his head and listen to his scouts. Lynch won't take a wideout with his first round pick three years in a row.

[@seansurfn2]

Sean Wolenski hows that statement holding up now?

[@gibster9624]

+seansurfn2 pretty good.

[@SMSaunders418]

@@seansurfn2 pretty fucking good right now! Super Bowl baby!!

[@MattSmith-iq1ld]

It's starting to finally payoff. A few missteps along the way, but it's starting payoff.

[@paulyang2699]

Year later who won the draft??????????

[@Kaneazy]

The Plan is coming along!!!

[@tomjacoubowsky275]

Sadly, 18 months later, this first round draft day has very little to show and can be argued to be a bust. Thomas has been mediocre and now Foster is gone.

[@rorycorr353]

Picked Kittle in the 5th tho 👍🏼

[@qquriousmqqe6205]

😁💭(...My God...and they WORK TOGETHER...PERFECTLY❗... and are IN SYNC with eachother 👀👀...We, 49er Faithfuls, are NOW BLESSED...👍😁)

[@dublin7]

Thinking to this day the 49ers could have gotten Mahomes at 3 and traded up and got TJ Watt. Still love my coach and GM.

[@yousufomar3446]

Little did they know that in the 5th round they would select the best tight end in the league

[@kevinosborne4632]

I'd say kelce best but Kittle close!

[@WhatsMyPurposeOrg]

And little did they know they would take Solomon Thomas, a complete bust! Over Mahomes, the Best QB in the NFL. Niners still ringless after 6 years of Shanahan & Lynch

[@ballsofsoup]

lol rueben foster and solomon thomas, staples of the new niners dynasty

[@francisvillanueva2555]

3:21 “the goal is to get more, not just a guy”... well they ended up getting the guy and more draft experience in the tank so ig u can say they got more in the end... trust the process faithful

[@nicholastrentini1999]

This aged well lol

[@tommyboim]

Looks like Shanahan and lynch were being passive aggressive with the "taking the player u love the " statement. Shanahan was saying he'd rather have "moren" players than wanting a individual that u love

[@jameskikirkwood3964]

Go get DeShawn Watson from the Texans would be big

[@Trohawkk]

Go 9ers!

[@andrewomahony9260]

Kyle Shanahan got seriously baked before being in this video.

[@andrewomahony9260]

The Bears just traded 4 more picks for an overvalued defensive player in Khalil Mack...

[@npatil85]

and it paid off

[@adamlong5048]

Loosing Jimmy killed us man.. its hard being a 49er fan but us loyal fans will hang in there!

[@matthawkins123]

John Lynch pulled a Danny Ainge. got the player he wanted and more

[@matta2800]

Can someone explain why SF traded down from 2 to 3? I'm confused as to why they didn't just pick Solomon Thomas at 2.

[@cjayssportscards5342]

Saves money

[@cjayssportscards5342]

And gave them extra picks

[@nicholastrentini1999]

Mahomes was right there and they took Solomon Thomas…. Wow

[@ColemanProductionsHighlights]

Do one this year

[@sharkattack1218]

Ruben lol what waste of draft picks

[@jonathanmontez5693]

Still has done a pretty good job at putting together a good team.

[@Joshtravel]

its funny because both of those guy are not on the team anymore

[@erikpuka2627]

Looks like Jude Law

[@06kiely]

They drafted 2 busts and misevaluated Mahomes and Watson. Awful draft from San Fran

[@andrewomahony9260]

Notice how Paraag was doing more of the negotiations and communications, while all Lynch did was talk to Solomon after he was taken and lead an applause.

[@ruru6022]

We need a qb :(

[@melturnboo4205]

Jimmy g in the house go niners💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

[@lbobby9043]

These picks turned quite terrible lol. How about you scout Mahomes and Watson next time Kyle.

[@NathanaelGreer]

Guys in tight pants playing with each other...

[@therealmistahjay]

nathan greer how you spend your Saturday nights is your business dude...

[@killaanth8133]

Hey if cte is that bad how does this guy get a general manager job

[@ericcalderon7576]

Fuck they're gonna be better before the rams get to a winning record smh

[@Jacob-hy7do]

Eric Calderon Wrong

[@jsjjshdshhs2450]

Solomon Thomas is such a bust

[@natedawgg411]

Should have NEVER PICKED SOLLY THOMAS.....Awful

[@antr7493]

very boring even for someone that is a fan

[@littlebigtrain]

Bust,bust

[@SeanTaylor21Mia]

Lmso what a bust! Httr thanks lynch for given us foster and taking that scrub bust thomas.

[@nocommentnoname1111]

Shanahan does not know what he's doing. Fire him!

[@MattSmith-iq1ld]

You say the same now?

[@konasaketrinh1446]

Lol

[@TheAnonymousGabe]

24 hours with Kyle Shanahan? You mean the "I blew a 28-3 lead" Kyle Shanahan. It took Kyle Shanahan less than 30 minutes to cripple the falcons franchise. Wonder what kind of damage he could do with 24 hours for the 49ers.

[@mrirrelevant7875]

nunya business Lol you mean Mr MVP Matt Ryan didnt audible the call? Mr MVP Matt Ryan didnt throw the ball away. Freeman didnt block Hightower. Hes faced the greatest HC and QB duo of all time Bill and Tom

[@TheAnonymousGabe]

Melon Head you're totally right. Kyle Shanahan isn't to blame. Because every single coach in the league would drop back to pass and not bleed the clock with a 25 point lead. Every coach would give every opportunity to have Tom Brady come back on them just like Shanahan did. Man, you're such a genius. Why didn't I think of that at first?

[@DeeTruth415]

Melon Head Ignore him. I find it really strange that nobody blames HEAD COACH Dan Quinn, for not DEMANDING Shanahan to kill clock. NOBODY is saying anything either about the Falcons DEFENSE that couldn't stop N.E.! Shanahan didn't blow the game, he had them beat! The FALCONS (collectively) blew the game.

[@49ershub25]

why do people blame just Kyle Shannan for the SB loss its a team effort at the end of the day. falcons fans just need to suck a dick.

[@49ershub25]

+nunya business are you dumb? Its not Kyle Shannan that lost you the SB its a team effort.
