In light of recent roster losses with 16 players leaving the 49ers, general manager John Lynch is finding it difficult to sign top talent due to financial restrictions. Attending pro day workouts at both Oregon and Stanford, Lynch aims to find replacements through the upcoming NFL Draft. Despite a disappointing last season, he expresses optimism about the draft class and the importance of long-term planning, especially regarding potential contract extensions for key players like quarterback Brock Purdy. Lynch emphasizes the need for roster flexibility amidst future negotiations and challenges.
"It's terrible sitting on your hands," Lynch said, expressing the frustration of not being able to make big moves while preparing for the crucial NFL Draft.
"We're excited about the way this draft stacks up and how our picks are coming together," Lynch stated, showing optimism as the 49ers prepare to replenish their roster.
Lynch emphasized the importance of long-term planning, noting that the team is "always looking years out" despite current roster challenges and financial constraints.
"You don't want to get to a point where you have to do things to keep your roster afloat. You want to have that flexibility," Lynch reflected on roster management.
