True, for many years all we had were 3-tech DT's and no one capable of playing the 2-gap DT.

Hicks was supposed to be that 3-4 DE, 4-3 2-gapper that we really needed.

His regression really hurt us this year. I truly thought he'd be that guy on the D-line. I was so wrong. Looked like Tarzan, played like Jane.

Also, losing Glenn Foster really hurt us as well. He looked to be a very promising 3-tech DT. I think he was the was the reason we let Tom Johnson go, then Foster gets hurt and goes on IR. Argghhh!

Just bad luck I guess.

Swann is still a huge concern IMO. His playing time minizes the troubles Browner can get into. Ok there is no stopping him but minimizing is a good thing.
