I'm really hoping they get their guys before they even interview this bunch.
Once they interview Riddick on Tuesday I'm really hoping McDaniels and Riddick get offers or Shanahan.

Riddick can get hired but if they want Wolf and/or McDaniels or Shanahan they'll have to wait until they're out of the playoffs. They could get a wink and a nod type of agreement though like Atlanta had with Quinn a couple of years ago.
I would imagine after they talk to Riddick things will heat up because I think after Riddick are the guys that they aren't high on and plan Z for them.

Exactly whom can we hire at GM that would be considered subpar to mediocre who would want the position knowing that Dipshi...er...Jed hired the coach before the GM was even consulted? If dummy York was serious about a culture change, he would have fired Baalke when the team went 1-4, installed Sackorpick as the starting QB and proceeded to lose the next 10 games, back in October and hired his replacement then so that the GM could ACTUALLY hire his next HC.

That's exactly my point!! How can folks not see that there's a problem with that process. It seems so backwards to me. Very frustrating to say the least.
Josh McDaniels is said to prefer the 49ers over any other team and Louis Riddick has already said he would accept the job, and he and Josh are friends on top of it. So I am not sure where this negativity is coming from. But its wearing thin.

I actually don't see any problem with the way they are doing the search. The team has stated that they are looking for a GM and Coach who are compatible and I believe that's what they're going to get.
The GM's that they are considered are all qualified and well respected, the team is interviewing all of the top HC candidates out there. Most importantly, it's not a coincidence that each HC candidate has a GM candidate that matches with them.
There is certainly precedence for this type of thing, ideally you want your GM to be a great match for the HC

I don't see the problem with the process as long as they don't hire the coach before the GM or if they do it's because they already know the coach and GM want to work together.
You have 5 other teams in the market for a coach and two of the hottest candidates have small interview windows so it's not a bad idea to touch base with guys to see how much interest they have in your team and potential GM candidates you're considering. Because since you're trying to pair the GM and coach as partners you don't want to hire the GM and find out none of the coaches want to work with him.
The only thing I'm concerned with is York's reputation scaring off top tier guys and they'll have to settle for someone willing to take the job.

That brings further questions about Wolf and his future with Green Bay
To add it was the Chiefs that denied Ballard from interviewing not Ballard rejecting the interview. Which makes sense now if the Chiefs are worried about Dorsey leaving for GB eventually.
Also it was reported that the 49ers were impressed with both Packers execs so if Wolf feels like he's going to be blocked and he and McDaniels will be buddy buddy I can see Wolf to the 9ers gain some steam.

Why are they interviewing head coaches before GMs? This makes no sense.

To sum up, I fully expect Jed and Parphloogie to hire the worst candidates possible. I trust their ability to screw this up bar none. I in no way believe that a single mid-level hire is even remotely considering accepting this garbage heap of a job offer. I will be outright shocked if anybody with aspirations of having a successful NFL career even picks up the phone when Jed and Punkrag call (though I strongly doubt that Jed and Farfignugen even have a clue who those people are).
Ok. Simply put. Taking Jed and Paraag out of the picture. Who would you like to see get an interview or be under consideration for the two jobs? Outside of never having to see or utter Jed and Paraag's face and name again, what else would you hope to see? What would a realistic Warty interview list look like? I say realistic because wishing a Jim Harbaugh return or a Belichick hire, if you're in that camp, is obviously not realistic, and frankly not worth anybody's time anymore.

Not possible. Teams can't block their personnel from seeking job advancement. Ballard rejected the interview because he recognizes a dumpster fire, career-ender when he sees one. Good for him. I wouldn't bother interviewing with these clowns either.
