makes sense leave Loomis to the bean counting, and Ireland as the scouting consultant

Anybody think that this is part of Loomis preparing to step down soon and just take care of the pelicans? I mean we did just get rid of most of Loomis' big contracts, with the exception of a couple....

I would think the Saints mean more to him, but you never know.

I would think he would want to get out soon, with the mess he's made, so yes.

J/J, With you, Lester.

Ireland should have no GM powers. He completely sucked at that job.

Interesting

A good coach will play to his player's strengths. It seems the front office has adopted this mindset within the leadership of organization. Let people do what they do best & everybody wins. I love the approach to this offseason by the entire organization. When Payton said he & Loomis would evaluate & make the necessary changes, he meant what he said. They saw what they were doing in the past had issues & decided to make changes. That's what real leadership is all about. Now it remains to be seen if these changes pay dividends on the field & I believe that they will.

I REALLY hope not. I don't mind Ireland doing some of the scouting because I think he has a good eye for front 7,o-linemen but I sure as frick don't want him being the guy completely in charge. He did a pretty piss poor job overall in Miami.

Oh I agree 100% but it does kinda look fishy.

wondering how instrumental he might have been in any of the trades or free agency? He likely brought some different connections/networking. Might have been an atta boy, that's how we like things done type reward.
