Grade Mickey Loomis' Job in FA
 
Just what it says.

I say : A

darstep 08-01-2011 01:58 PM

Same... A! and he can still earn bonus points to get to A+.

FireVenturi 08-01-2011 02:03 PM

So far. B.

if we resign Goodwin, Strief, D Thomas, and Nicks. Nicks should be easy. Then I will give him A

neugey 08-01-2011 02:05 PM

We may be a little hit and miss in free agency, but we rarely overpay and preserve our ability to resign the guys we really need to keep around, like Lance Moore. A convincing B.

I would give an A for trades as we have made some good ones in recent years, especially the Vilma trade.

I give him an A... but I don't think he's the smartest in the class. Definitely up there though.

Rugby Saint II 08-01-2011 02:55 PM

From what I've seen this year he's doing well at covering his bases. If he resigns Sharper I'll be even more excited after finding out Nicks is coming back. I would like Strief back but if he goes I'm still giving Loomis an A.

Maverick2299 08-01-2011 02:55 PM

There is still alot to be done, but I gotta go with an A. Getting Nicks, Moore, Harper and Bushrod back was very important. No one has been overpaid, signing alot of low risk - high reward guys.

Mardigras9 08-01-2011 02:57 PM

Definite A

foreverfan 08-01-2011 03:40 PM

B+ - No brainer at this point. Resign current players.
Give him the + for the way the Bush trade when down.

|Mitch| 08-01-2011 04:16 PM

I give him an A, just for getting something for Bush...

Luda34 08-01-2011 04:31 PM

The guy is doing a wonderful job I give him A+ from what he's done over the years the talent he brought to New Orleans and a lot of these player want to play here and they want to be here.

crawgator 08-01-2011 06:16 PM

He did a real good so far.. We have resigned many that we needed to.. We got rid of Reggie, If we could just sign a OLB ... then I would give him an A+..
Though New England and Philli did outstanding jobs... We did pretty well ourselves.... GEAUX SAINTS!!!!!!

saintfan 08-01-2011 06:30 PM

I give a "B". Cut me mick!

alleycat_126 08-01-2011 09:36 PM

I gotta give him an A, but not an A+ yet, I love the Shaun Rodgers sign, and the Sproles sign. I would hope to get goodwin signed especially after nicks signed a tender, and strief a 1 year. also why is CAM JORDAN not signed and in camp. Lastly I kinda still wish he would look into Rocky Mcintosh at the OLB for some much needed vet competition!!

pumpkindriver 08-01-2011 09:59 PM

Mickey is a slacker, hes just the worst GM ever.hehehehehhe. just kidding, I think hes done a fantastic job and I trust his decisions with personnel. We'll be fine.

st thomas 08-02-2011 01:10 PM

go mickey your so fine, yo so fine you blow my mind, go mickey A+

NinthWardJay 08-02-2011 02:13 PM

He has done a really standup job IMO, signing some vets to fill holes in our team, trading Bush yet still getting a Bush-like player in return, resigning some key guys that help our team out in many ways. He knows that free agency isnt about signing all of them top free agents (Eagles) but its about taking a look at your team and finding the best way to put a productive and efficient team together

hey driver, that avitar got me a double pump look from my wife. had some explaining to do lol. shes young and hot. and made me look good for my age. my wife asked me if i were pulling a edwin edwerds. lol i had to show her mine and had to change it to more kid friendly. all good now.:mrgreen:

jcp026 08-02-2011 04:37 PM

I changed my mind. I gave him a B before signing Franklin and re-signing Thomas. Now, I say A. And if we can bring in a Lofa Tatupu or Ernie Sims to finally push Shanle out of the rotation I'll give him an A+++.

VillainAgain 08-02-2011 05:11 PM

Realistically hes LAWRENCE VICKERS away from an A+ ill give hum a B+

VillainAgain 08-02-2011 05:20 PM

Quick Go burn down their facility

Memnoch_TP 08-02-2011 05:22 PM

At this point, the next Jersey I am going to buy is a #0 with LOOMIS on the back!

crawgator 08-02-2011 05:53 PM

He deserves an A for what has been done so far... Now bringing in Franklin to seal up the middle.... Maybe we can pick up Banta-Cain or Bobby Carpenter at OLB..

homerj07 08-02-2011 07:45 PM

If/When we get Goodwin I will pop him up to an "A"

Ashley 08-03-2011 12:03 AM

Extra credit just landed him a A+. NOW if he lands Osi Umenyiora....off the charts.
I might just have to run down my street naked or something! Damn it is exciting so far

alleycat_126 08-03-2011 05:34 AM

He's still at a A. Goodwin and OSI might get him best Saints GM of all Time!!

Saint_LB 08-03-2011 05:50 AM

I gave him an A+...but saying he is the smartest kid in class is kinda like saying he is the smartest kid on the short school bus...





jeanpierre 08-03-2011 06:18 AM

"I - Incomplete" waiting to the start of the season to see what we have...

Some really good signings, concerned about Offensive Line (Brees), another vet LB (Casillas hasn't shown he can stay healthy, depth); another DE (Will Smith BS Suspension)...

foreverfan 08-03-2011 01:50 PM

I just realize that I need money and Loomis hasn't signed ME.

Loomis gets and F- since I'm still out there!

winmill1 08-03-2011 03:34 PM

I am super impressed. The Franklin signing is unreal. Our Dline will be great. If Shaun Rogers is here to play-wow. I think he will be, coming from Detroit and Cleveland. I hope our Lb's holdup because Shanle scares me.

The Goodwin/Frisco signing is why I give an "I" and why it stays an "I"...

Payton and Company will come up with something (i.e. Kreutz) or know something already (i.e. Tennant)...

Don't get grades or pats on the back until you get the Lombardi...

VillainAgain 08-05-2011 12:16 PM

With a report fron NFL network sometime later today The Saints will announce the signing of C Olin Kreutz will make Mickey Loomis the class Validictorian of 2011. I give him an A++

QBREES9 08-05-2011 12:33 PM

ok I'll give him A. Great work

No, I'll definitely give him a pat on the back because he is putting us in place to get the lambardi...he could have just sat on his a$$ and did nothing, but he's been wheeling and dealing to to get us the right people. The question is how did he do getting the right people here so we can win another SB. He has done an amazing job

jeanpierre 08-05-2011 09:34 PM

B-...

Overspent on Roman Harper(.) No other team would have paid that much for Harper - so why guarantee that much money?!?

Equivalent or better Strong Safeties were available; why guarantee a white elephant of a contract?!?

Would like to have seen another OLB signed (i.e. Manny Lawson, Rocky McIntosh)

Nice salary dump of Bush...

Though Olin Kreutz would seem to be a nice consolation prize, letting Goodwin geaux and breaking up the finest interior offensive line is risky...

Franklin, Rogers signings was good, and overdue...

Keeping so many Saints FA was nice - though overly lauded...

Where's the long term deal for Brees? Nicks?

Marlboro Man 08-05-2011 09:53 PM

No way you can't give him an A or even A+. First, best draft in team history, second, best UDFA class in team history and third, best FA class in team history. This is by far, the most talented team ever fielded by the Saints organization.

saintsfan1976 08-05-2011 10:02 PM

I'd rather look at his entire body of work to this point.

Loomis and Payton have built one of the top NFL "Systems" in probably the shortest period of time.

And it's built to last. You hear that Atlanta??
