Lynch praises McDaniel, who watches from crowd in awesome moment

John Lynch has very high praise for former 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel. 

And McDaniel knows exactly how Lynch feels about him too. 

Mainly because he was standing in the crowd on Wednesday at the NFL combine where Lynch was gushing about the Miami Dolphins' new head coach

While McDaniel listens on, he throws up a fist-pump and says "F-yeah, John!" to which Lynch eventually notices him and starts laughing. 

Lynch and McDaniel go back further than their five seasons together with the 49ers. As Lynch says in his praise of McDaniel, the 38-year old was a ball boy for the Denver Broncos, the team that Lynch played for from 2004-2007.
