Head is the assistantgeneral manager of the 49ers, the unsung hero of their front office, and now the good was asked. Both the Commanders and Raiders requested interviews with him for their management positions. And if the 49ers don’t give him a raise or a promotion, he’s probably gone.
The 49ers can’t afford to lose Peters.
Chief is one of the three most important members of the organization, along with John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan. And unlike those two, Peters actually has decades of scouting experience. That’s his entire background, unlike Lynch, who has a media and game background, and Shanahan, who has a coaching background.
Both Lynch and Shanahan have a lot of influence over who the 49ers sign and draft, which may explain why the Niners give up so many draft picks in the first three rounds. Watch: Solomon Thomas, Reuben Foster, Dante Pettis, Tarvarius Moore, Jalen Hurd, Javon Kinlaw, Trey Lance, Trey Sermon, Drake Jackson, Ty Davis-Price, Danny Gray and Cameron Latu.
Peters also has a lot of influence 49ers’ personnel decisions and will likely make them later in the draft when the 49ers select players who may not be on Lynch or Shanahanand#039;s radar, which may explain why the 49ers find so many gems after the third round. See: George Kittle, D.J. Jones, D.J. Reed, Dre Greenlaw, Jauan Jennings, Deommodore Lenoir, Talanoa Hufanga, Elijah Mitchell and Brock Purdy.
I’m not saying Peters made all those Day 3 picks, but he probably made a lot of them.
So make him the GM. The 49ers have already promoted Lynch from general manager to director of football operations – now Peters is being promoted as well.
He earned it..
