I am not for firing Payton but I would hope they start evaluating Loomis as GM. Maybe, he will be better off with a demotion to bean counter and bring in a GM with better scouts.

They already went through a FO turnover last year. It may take a little time to reap the benefits but we drafted better and I believe we have a brighter future ahead of us this season.

I agree. What he has done with the salary cap is totally unacceptable and wreckless . He should be fired right now. Makes me wonder if Benson really is mentally sound enough to carry out business. Any other GM in the league does that and they are fired. I would say the personnel staff should be on the hot seat too. Most of our drafts blow, and we throw huge money at FA that have a history of injury.
Let the guy who picks the UDFAs run the whole damn scouting show. We seem to get lucky there
