See that is were i think defenses will readjust this year. last year the doubled up on Hicks a lot and that did not work so well. Jr and Jordan were the only duo in the NFL to get more than 12 sacks. I think teams will not double up on Hicks as much this year and worry about the other two. open the door for Hicks. Offenses will be forced to max protect more or get really fancy with their play calling.
