Do you not pay attention to what respected reporters on the Saints say? Or to what ML says himself ??? Loomis is pretty much hands off on coaching staff , players AND who we pick. He has said himself when it comes to the draft is a CONSENSUS and when there is a disagreement he's the tie breaker. It's not like the HC and the scouting dept can't come to an agreement and ML says I'm going to draft someone totally different. And you can bet when the HC and the scouting dept disagree ML will mostly side with the HC he did with SP.
