MIDI for drumkits?

Alrighty, I'm using Session Drummer 2 and the brushes pack in there to do some jazz drums. They  sound awesome to me, but I'm wondering where I can get a good number of loops that I could stick in there that actually sound good?
 
I'm NOT a drummer so I truly don't hear with the ears of a drummer. I usually tend to just loop on thing forever for drums, but that won't work in this case since I need to simulate a real jazz combo. 
Suggestions?

 
Mics: MXL 990, MXL R80, 2 x MXL Tempo XLRs, Cobalt Co9, SM48, iSK Starlight
Cans: Hifiman HE4XX, AKG M220
Gear: Cakewalk BBL - PreSonus Firepod - Alesis Elevate 3 - Axiom 49
DAW: Win10, AMD FX-8300, 16GB DDR3

    I don't know about SD2, but XLN Audio has a Jazz Grooves: Brushes MIDIpak that uses their ReelSweep tech in their Modern Jazz Brushes ADpak. I just picked up SONAR, so I don't know if AD2 was included with X3 or not. But if you have it, this might be a good choice.
