Well then, he's not a general manager, he's a cap manager...

A general manager knows to reign in a head coach and make him defend his personnel decisions...

And then I'd ask, who wanted Browner?!? Terry Fontenot, Director of Pro Scouting?!?

If Fontenot rubber-stamped the decision to sign Browner, then somewhere in there should be some accountability...

No, he is the GM but it has been declared by Benson, the owner, that Payton is running the whole show. If you have to point the finger at anyone for not reigning in Payton point it at Benson. In this organization the GM does not have the power to "reign in" the coach. Loomis is a cap manager, that is his strongpoint, and is part of the reason he is here. Loomis has a lot less control over team operations than most GMs in the league have, especially when it comes to personnel.

And I think the hiring of Irleand will help our scouting .
