What Loomis can do a better job of in the future is turning players into draft picks.

We're not likely to find another Drew Brees so it's more important than ever to build this team from the core out.

But he's got to do better in trade negotiations...

In fact, I wonder if we got more because of Ireland...

The Jamaal Brown Trade with Washington...

The Jon Vilma Trade with NYJets...

The Jeremy Shockery Trade with NYGiants...

Needed moves, but Loomis overpaid...

gotta disagree here:
Brown- turned into a tool and wanted out. We got what we could
Vilma- a second rounder for a defensive QB and a leading tackler? Any day of the week
Shockey, well, I'll give you that one to an extent- three solid years, but more flash than substance
