And they're just now figuring that out week 3 of the regular season .....finally came to their senses maybe coaching/scouting is a problem you would've thought this would had happen already why keep him for this long

Hicks just went from an 0-3 team to an 3-0 team, which might make it to the super bowl again.

So the Saints acquired TE Michael Hoomanawanui?

Can I buy some vowels?

This keeps up, we're going to be throwing Cajun Luaus...

He's been cut/released/injured often...

Hope he can stick...

A blocking TE that can catch? What a concept! Me likie long time.

CheramieIII · 10-01-2015, 03:45 AM

He's obviously worth more to us than Hicks and isn't he just a blocking specialist?

Hicks apparently has been outplayed by younger guys on the D-line and thus became expendable. We used that fact and went and got somebody that might help the team short term. Sounds like the right thing to do if you ask me.
