Which team was the real Jordan Hicks? Philly or Arizona?

He's ended almost every season on IR. I'd rather have Kwon back.

I’m not saying get this guy, but didn’t Kwon end the season on IR as well ?

So in essence , which injury is more acceptable in terms of the player being able to be productive going forward.

I think we'll have to wait and see what plays out in mini-camp and so on.

I will say I’d rather be able to sign Kwon back, if is healthy, than spend a resource to trade for someone else. Unless that someone else is really good.

Hicks has been a dawg for both. Solid against the run and decent in coverage. Honestly speaking, after Demario it gets extremely dicey at LB play. Baun is still a huge question mark & Werner is a rookie.

As for his availability, he's played & started in all 16 games 2 years straight.

Matt made good arguments on the "need" for a player like Hicks though.

Kwon is progressing - this is from a month ago...

Wow, this is pretty cool. Has anyone else seen this site? I have no clue how accurate their prediction model could be but an interesting data base for potential issues nontheless.

Just imagine if we had Hicks to start and when Kwon is back on the field then we'll have one heck of a good LB'er group. We could take a current weakness and turn it into a strength with Davis leading the charge for the LB'ers. I'm in for signing both.
