Hear me out here, but listening to the radio today I heard someone comment that the Saints have a top 3 GM in the NFL. Given what this team has done with the cap and talent evaluation, I believe this “GM” thing is more than one guy, as Loomis is but a part of a larger machine (but I will still give him credit for knowing his place, and not trying to be a chef when he is a waiter).
But now that I think about it, if you were to divvy up duties (Loomis handles the cap, Ireland handles the talent evaluation), do the Saints have 2 of the top 10 gms in the NFL?
Loomis has been masterful with how he has handle cap purgatory and making trades on the teams behalf. You could argue that nobody in the NFL has done it better than the CPA from Oregon.
Ireland has done a masterful job of securing talent for this team. Since his onboarding no other NFL team has drafted or signed UDFA’s
of such high quality as the Saints. Perhaps it’s my bias showing, but the man has turned chicken sheet into chicken salad so much that none of us know what we are eating anymore.
With all that said, could we potentially lose Ireland this offseason due to how amazing he is, or would we make a internal move to keep him here?
