Sean Payton

or

Loomis

================2014 Draft is just one Example OF COUNTLESS FAILURES


2nd 58 Stanley Jean-Baptiste Cornerback Nebraska

4th 126 Khairi Fortt Inside linebacker California

5th 167 Vinnie Sunseri Safety Alabama

5th 169 Ronald Powell Outside linebacker Florida

6th 202 Tavon Rooks Offensive tackle Kansas State

I think Mickey Loomis should stay as another Title to manage Salary Cap but WE NEED A DEFENSIVE MINDED PERSON to draft DEFENSE.

If you didn't pay attention, we added Jeff Ireland to run college scouting.

2015 draft are ALL on the team.

I think the FO realized their mistakes and worked this off-season to remedy it. It doesn't absolve them of past mistakes, and you can make the case they deserve to be fired, but at least they're not continuing head on in arrogance.

Loomis fired Rick Reiprish in the middle of a Senior Bowl practice. I think that got the message through

Yeah, I don't think people realize this was a pretty big move. Repriesh wasn't just head of scouting, he was given a good bit of credit for past successes and even got a GM interview with another team. Because Loomis is a bean counter and Payton has always outsourced the defense, we really do need someone else in the FO to help carry some of the load. Hopefully Ireland can help right the ship.

No one is losing it over Rooks not working out but it's not like that pick is nothing. Getting a guy who can take one snap for your team at that spot would be nice.

Yes, but the percentages past like the 4th round of even making the team are really low. Im not saying he is flawless, just that 5th and 6th rounders rarely make teams to begin with.

You're right but when you get like 25 plays out of 5 of the 6 players you drafted they're all gonna get in.

its more of:
1. Gave up a 3rd to take Cooks
2. ignored center knowing damn well we needed to address it
3. picked a bunch of productive, but injury prone college players with high ceilings.
4. took a project new sherman "prototype" that knew minimal about being a DB, thought they could coach him up.

Who picks a f'ing project in the second round? It's like Al Davis has been haunting our drafts for the past few years.

As for Ireland...make him the f'ing GM. Loomis can go.

Loomis has embarrassed himself since he's been GM. Dude shouldn't have lasted when they canned Haslett. He's a damn cockroach

Yeah, let's get rid of two of the most successful front office pieces that have lead this franchise over the last 9 years.
