I don't like this trade.

Hicks although inconsistent - Had shown above average ability.

Our new TE has accomplished what?

Re: Saints trade Akiem Hicks for Patriots Michael Hoomanawanui
 

Like they did when we traded Jonathan Sullivan to them?

Maybe he just isn't all that good. Tarzan/Jane?

Re: Saints trade Akiem Hicks for Patriots Michael Hoomanawanui
 

Hicks has never shown above average ability. He makes like one splash play a season and makes everyone believe he's on the verge of breaking out only to go MIA again.

Hoo mana Who da hell Dat?

This may not be the final piece of this puzzle.

Perhaps Bunkley is ready to return?

Re: Saints trade Akiem Hicks for Patriots Michael Hoomanawanui
 

This guy can not be any worse than the ones we have. Hicks was a FA next year anyway. Not like we were going to resign him.

Re: Saints trade Akiem Hicks for Patriots Michael Hoomanawanui
 

He was a JAG (just a guy), and we addressed a weakness that may help us this year.

There was a reason his ass was benched Sunday. My guess is that we have guys who are better players than Hicks.

Re: Saints trade Akiem Hicks for Patriots Michael Hoomanawanui
 

I hope we trade John Jenkins too and then resign Bunkley.

Re: Saints trade Akiem Hicks for Patriots Michael Hoomanawanui
 

This is right. A decision was going to have to be made on Hicks. This shifts the onus to the Patriots. Who knows, we may decide to pick him up as a free agent next year at a fraction of what he would have demanded in a new contract.

Your new TE, that's who. Learn to say it.
