You have to cover all the bases in today's world. But having good football people who can recognize talent in guys like Shaheed, who may not check all the boxes from a numbers perspective,, is what's most important.

So true Cruize! The RAS is good but not perfect. Look at our string of defensive end misses like Peat, Turner, and Davenport for proof that the system has too many misses. When we take a chance on players later in the draft who fall out side the parameters we still have a solid success rate. It is good when the GM is also good at talent evaluation but that isn't Loomis' strength. Accounting is where he excels. The more options we have to evaluate players the better. You gotta' stay up with/ahead of the times and trends. I don't know if this guy is any good but at least we're trying hard to stay up to date with the latest analysis.
