New Orleans Saints salary cap squeeze

Wow, this again?

This is probably the best situation we've been in 5 years. Year after year Loomis re-works contracts to get us under the cap and affords us the capability to sign numerous key free agents.

Yet year after year people panic.

Loomis has this under control. If you doubt it you simply aren't paying attention, or you're dumber than a box of Cam Newtons.

So are you waiting for 2018 and hoping Brees is in better shape than Favre at that age and won't play like a declining QB on his last legs?

No, I'm ridiculing people who panic over the cap every year.

Thats why I say the problem isnt so much Loomis. He has always gotten us under the cap and enough under it to sign at least one top teir free agent. Its not his fault those players dont work out as well as planned. If Byrd had come out of the gate screaming and if Unger made a bigger impact we would all be praising him right now. Loomis finds the money, its not his job to figure out who to spend it on.
