Loomis has been out Loomised (1 Viewer)

Previous Next
Those Tuttle and Onyemata contracts are too high. No way is Onyemata worth 12mill/year. Our run defense was pretty bad last year, he hasn't been the same since popping hot. Saints are going to need a 2017 type draft to fill these voids. Likely gonna have to go defense first two picks unless you can find a value guy later in free agency.

The Saints have never been early buyers in the FA period, Loomis and Co wait for the market to set. Most of the current signing look like teams are willing to let said players walk.

You are spot on lost my head a little bit with the early start on Carr although I don't think the Jairus Byrd deal made them gun shy you just cant account for the fact that sometimes things don't work out and I'm not advocating for them to sign a specific one player or our guys, they know what they have and don't have and imo have earned the benefit of the doubt

Agreed. Right now, personally, I jus want us to work out something to keep MT n resign Kaden Eliss.

In vet FA, I look for Loomis to free up more cap space (like he always does!). I also think he’ll sign a DT n RB in da “second wave” of vet FA.

That said, I still think we’re gonna address DT in the first 2rds, n RB in the first 3 or 4.

We’ll see.

Based on what I read here sometimes, we can do whatever we want. We're never at a disadvantage and will always get exactly who and what we want. We're the only ones who can manage the cap the way we do. Also, the cap only goes up for us, other teams don't get more cap space when we do.
 
The defensive line needed big upgrades and was the weak link last year. Overpaying for guys who were underperforming is not the answer. Yes, we have restraints but free agency just started and the draft is coming up. It’s quite possible the team will be in a much better spot at DL by camp than they were last year.
 
So we allowed some over-priced, underperforming guys to go to division rivals and signed the top free-agent QB - a position where both of those teams are fully unproven

Yup that Loomis is a bum.

It's true that the Saints had to make some tough decisions with their young talent due to salary cap constraints. While some may argue that Onyemata and Tuttle were not worth overpaying for, it's still unfortunate to lose players who were contributing to the team. The Saints will have to continue to develop young talent and make shrewd moves in free agency to remain competitive.

They gave us the 24 rank run defense.

of course , but , I'd have hoped that we wouldn't have gotten so distracted by the Carr deal that we wouldn't be prepared to make moves to address DL depth at start of free agency. This is how we position the Team for BPA in the draft.

It is to the saints credit that folks are poaching our guys , It's to Loomis' credit that folks are copying our strategy.
