No Way Rizzi can be our HC

Here's the problem with our current organization structure.

Our former head coach (xCSP) also acted as a GM. He left
Our GM by title is not a football guy...he's a finance guy that when left to make football decisions, they're not very good - see Deshaun Watson debacle
Our Last HC (Allen) was not a good HC but left to make GM-lite decisions because to Our current GM, xCSP was able to make them as well. See DC acquisition / Ceedy trade

To fix this we either need:
a HC that has the clout or experience with making GM level decisions
or
promote Loomis out of the gm position amd bring in a GM who actually knows what a winning football team needs.

I'm not sure I'd say that Loomis isn't at "football guy' after 20 plus years as an NFL GM, but he's certainly not a talent evaluation guy or at least not an expert in talent evaluation.

Anyway, I agree that one of the things they need to find is a HC that is good at evaluating talent and good in the draft because Loomis clearly leans heavily on the HC to make those decisions and evaluate the players they are going to pick in the draft.

Ideally Loomis moves up to an executive VP role and then bring in a new young GM with talent evaluation chops, but i don't think Loomis is yet ready to be put out to pasture. Then again with the way Mrs. B moved on DA, maybe she doesn't care if Mickey is ready or not?
