No offense to John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan, who pick the players and make the decisions and ultimately build the 49ers roster.
They do a great job but have no HR background. Lynch was a player and announcer, and Shanahan is a coach.
And until this year, they could always rely on the assistant general manager Adam Peters, who was a scout and has more than 15 years of personnel experience.
Now Peters is the general manager of the Washington command and this offseason.
he was very aggressive with high priced players like Nick Allegretti, Tyler Biadasz, Austin Ekeler, Dorance Armstrong and Bobby Wagner.
As you can see, Peters has a deep knowledge of players across the league.
He’s a great asset to his team.
Peters may have been at least partially responsible for the 49ers’ big signings of the past few years,
like Javon Hargrave and Charvarius Ward, because that’s the type of signing he makes in Washington.
And they are that type.a New In addition, most of the free agents signed by the 49ers have direct ties to some of the coaching staff,
suggesting that the coaches are more involved in personnel decisions now when Peters left.
Coaches always want to work with players. they already know what it means to be missing.
Peters is the size of the Pacific Ocean. Eventually, the 49ers will have to replace him with the same expert.
