I know there are many threads on decisions under Mickey Loomis that have set our team back. But one BY FAR is the worst and most unforgivable.
When we traded 2 first round picks to move up in the first round to pick Marcus Davenport over Lamar Jackson.
Everyone on the TV was shocked. They all thought we made that bold trade move for one reason only, for a successor to Drew Brees.
Instead we wound up with a DE with low ambition that could not stay healthy and eventually not resigned.
Jackson has been a multiple NFL MVP candidate.
It's very hard for me to get over that move.
Loomis was a basketball point guard for a small college. Why in the world does he have the right to determine what a FOOTBALL team needs for success. Sean Payton propped him up big time. I would not be surprised if Loomis was part of why Sean eventually wanted out.
If he had good judgement, he would realize that a basketball player is not a good decision maker for an NFL team.
HIRE A FOOTBALL GM LOOMIS, WE DESERVE BETTER!
