I keep telling everyone Sean Payton ran those drafts. Mickey Loomis was here before Sean. Look at THOSE drafts. Never amounted to anything. John Sullivan was probably the worst of the bunch. Gave massive contract to Aaron Brooks and so on
I think this was mostly the case before 2016.....when Jeff Ireland came on board the Saints drafting improved drastically....it hasn't been all sunshine and roses since then but, at least under CSP it was common knowledge that Ireland was mostly responsible for the selecting the guys we draft if available....
