Again, what happened with Akiem Hicks? You're argument isn't very impressive. |

Re: Underwhelmed
Didn't he end '14 on IR? The monster label was from his teammates. If I remember right he was very solid in '13 then was hampered by an ankle though most of '14. The crap on him came out in '15. He had the talent, but I guess you're right. They missed that. That was probably a big reason for the house cleaning in the scouting department.
