kika applies pressure...

Lou Brown: I thought you said we didn't have any high priced talent.
Charlie Donovan: Forget about Dorn, he's just high priced.

That's how I feel about Jordan, and BTW let's not pay Hicks a dime because I don't see anything worth paying.

Re: Akiem Hicks confident pass rush will improve

I don't relish being "right" about things like this because, first of all, I want our players to succeed, and second, every draft pick is somewhat of a crapshoot. You can't really take credit one way or the other for predicting anything.

But I did rip the Saints for picking Hicks that year, and it resulted in probably the biggest backlash of anything I've ever said on here. I remembered his recruitment to LSU and his subsequent release from the program before playing a down. He was an ok prospect at the time, but nothing special was said about him. Then he goes to some place in canada, does alright, and suddenly he's a third round pick for us... Our only pick in the first three rounds of that draft. I was not real pleased. But I really hoped everyone who blew up on me would be right.

Still hoping.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Agree. Save money for Armstead extension.
Btw. Walker is playing great in Detroit.
