Looks about right

Loomis cost the Saints a dynasty from 2009 - 2018.
We're lucky to have one Super Bowl with this jackass as our GM.

Sed Ellis doesn’t belong on this list.

OMG four whole 1st round busts over 25 years as GM. Atrocious! I'm sure not every other team in the league has a similar number over that time period. Right?

Davenport is not 2nd worst.
Even though he's costed 2 1st, he still contributed a lot more than Turner, penning, Anthony, sjb, foskey, and Grayson.

Sullivan trade up
Davenport trade up
Penning trade up
Ellis trade up
How many squander the pick while also giving up other high value draft capital?

In 2003, I honestly thought we were trading up for Suggs. He looked like the greatest pass rusher in the NCAA since Derrick Thomas and he was right there for the taking...
Of all of these, Sedrick Ellis is the only one I really wanted and was so happy when we drafted him

Crazy part is CSP was HC for most of those misses also

He’s played a lot but Ruiz deserves to be on that list.

Ellis, a super bowl winning starting DT? Ok..
Posted on 11/6/26 at 8:36 pm to L.A.
Most of them were Payton picks except and Sullivan and foskey
We're having to dig into the second and third round for worst picks?

Loomis has made a lot of horrible decisions as GM, from coaching hires to FA signings, and yes, draft busts. But if you put the last 25 years of Saints drafts against the rest of the league, I'm comfortable we'd be in the top third or better. He's had as many good drafts as atrocious ones. That's how the NFL draft works, pobody's nerfect.

What happened to Ellis. Did he get hurt after the SB year? That’s one that’s just made its way out of my memory.

He signed with the bears then abruptly retired. One of those guys who got burnt out. Made a nice lick with us though
