Ryan Pace

blackangold · 01-05-2015, 04:01 PM

Unfortunately looks like he is staying with the team. He, along with the other scouts are a large reason why the team sucks at drafting defensive talent.

Got promoted to his spot in 2007... and hasn't hit on any drafts. I don't get why this guy gets so much praise and recognition considering our piss poor scouting and talent acquisition. I guess that's why I am just a fan though.

So folks, doesn't look like much is changing. I have low expectations for the 2015 Saints right now, that could change but it's unlikely.

Reports: Ryan Pace unlikely to leave New Orleans Saints - ESPN

Got to wonder why he is staying if he is being offered a GM job
Is Loom is moving in soon or is Pace happy to be the number 2

Idk how I feel about this. We need someone who can properly scout and assess talent. I feel like we don't have that. Either we take bust picks constantly, or we just can't develop players to save our lives. Probably a little of both, but still its frustrating. I wouldn't want to be drafted by us at this rate.

I read somewhere that Loomis was spending more time with the Pelicans and giving Pace more responsibility with the Saints...

If he's responsible for even half the picks other than cooks last year i hope he goes. If he is responsible for our sleeper picks then i hope he becomes GM. We're really bad at drafting.

The Cardinals just took Tavon Rooks off our hands

Another good draft pick right there....

Wow, because we all know there was starting talent in the 6th round instead of Rooks...

there are 4-5 OL drafted after Rooks that actually saw the field, including Henderson in Buffalo, who started all 16 games

There are always plenty of starters 6th, 7th, and UDFA. Opportunity cost by missing on Rooks. Here are some of the picks after Who? Rook:

ILB Jackson, W. KY (not that we needed any run-stuffers there; plus Hawthorne did so well)

WR Jeff Janis, Saginaw Valley St (nah, our WRs never get hurt and GB doesn't know how to draft WRs late, especially white ones)

ROT Seantrel Henderson, Miami (nope, he'd just be wasted being groomed to replace Strief and Armstead will never get injured...although Henderson started for Miami)

OLBs Smallwood (UConn) and Starr (S. Dakota)...silly to give up on Junior learning to keep containment and/or stop the run. Give him another year. 2015 for instance

I wanted Jackson last year in the draft, he was my sleeper.
