after jed york's exhaustive GM search he's decided to promote from within after interviewing two people lol

NFL Network's Mike Lombardi reports that the 49ers will hire Trent Baalke as general manager "within 48 hours."

Lombardi interviewed for the job Tuesday, so it's safe to say that he has insider knowledge. Baalke is currently in his sixth season with the 49ers and served as the club's top personnel man in 2010, overseeing the draft, free agency, and in-season roster moves. It remains to be seen if Baalke has enough pull to hire a "big-name" coach -- like Jon Gruden or Jim Harbaugh -- as CEO Jed York is believed to be targeting. We wouldn't bet on it.

The 49ers didn't have an actual GM and this guy did all the duties normally associated with it. basically they just gave him an actual title.

he was responsible for basically everything the niners have done the past few years, with coaches, players, drafts, etc.

we have experience with him from the Everette Brown trade.

His drafts have generally been terrible, he was responsible for dumping a truckload full of money on Nate Clements lawn, he promoted Mike Singletary, and had some say in the Mike Nolan hiring.

basically he sucks and his suckitude has ramifications for the Carolina Panthers in the short and long term.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
