John Lynch: 49ers offseason was "a little uneasy," but necessary

Our Summary

The San Francisco 49ers have undergone significant roster changes since the end of the 2024 season. Key factors include several free agent departures, the trade of wide receiver Deebo Samuel, and the addition of 11 new draft picks. These moves enabled the team to allocate funds for new contracts for quarterback Brock Purdy, linebacker Fred Warner, and tight end George Kittle. General Manager John Lynch acknowledged the challenges and uncertainties during the offseason but defended the necessity of these changes. He emphasized the team's previous talent depth and expressed optimism about the new draft picks' potential impact. However, the effectiveness of these changes will only be revealed once the season starts.
